abby1 0 Posted August 16, 2008 I had a small fill last Monday and I am now getting back to solid foods. Unlike an earlier fill, I am adjusting nicely. This morning however, I woke about about 6:00 am with a slight acidic feeling in my throat and coughing. Now I know I could still be swollen and this could be making my band feel tighter and I know I am always tightest in the morning. Is this something other bandsters get? Should I be concerned about this? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
juliegeraci 7 Posted August 16, 2008 It sounds like you have a little acid reflux. I would try and take a zantac 150. That is what helped me. If it continues you are too tight and should have some saline taken out, even .1 or .2 can help reflux. I went through the same thing about 10 months ago. I had to have some removed, then I was able to go back up again. I am fine now. The is quite normal when you are banded. Good luck. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
