I have been experiencing a soar throat for over a week now. It is HORRIBLE in the morning and gets better through the day but never goes away. It is mainly on the left side of my throat and radiates up to my ear. It only hurts when I swallow. It feels like I have been vomitting for 2 days, ya know that burning irritation feeling.

Anyway, I read that night time regurgitation can cause morning soar throat so I thought I would see if any of you that have been banded for a while had this.

Yes, reflux can cause a sore throat because the acidic stomach contents are coming up and irritating your throat. You could try some OTC Prilosec, but it would probably be better to talk to your doctor. Any chance you are too tight? That can cause the reflux.

Maybe it is just a sore throat? Your symptoms sound like that could be it, especially with it hurting more in the am after sleep. Do you have your tonsils? Is your throat red? Running a fever at all? Any white Patches in the back of your throat? Maybe your should go to your regular doc to be checked for strep.
