Hi:

I've been banded since July, have recently been having a bit of gurgling going on and have pb'd more than usual. It's been about two months since last fill and gurgling just started this week. Have lost about 20 pounds since last fill, so band shouldn't be getting tighter. Is gurgling a sign of being too tight? What's up with this gurgling thing?

Anybody else?

pb means "productive" burp. It's not quite puking because the food hasn't gone all the way down. It's kind of like regurgitating. It's when my belly cop (band) is doing it's job and sending things back if it has too much. However, it's been sending back food and I haven't overeaten.

I gurgle sometimes. It's usually after I eat to much, or if I'm feeling really restricted. It goes on for 20 minutes or more. It's really a weird feeling.

Gurgling is a sign of restriction and not necessarily being too tight. That being said, if you are now gurgling and PBing more 2 months after your fill you may be slightly too tight. Julie
