Chest Cold after surgery

[mamalovell 0]

I came down with a chest cold 4 days ago and I was banded 3 weeks ago. I am scarred to death of my band slipping. I try not to cough but had to give into the cold and have been coughing tons. Today I started having what I thing is reflux. I have a nasty unpleasant taste at the back of my throat. Is this reflux? Is it normal to get reflux after surgery? Will it hurt my band from coughing? My chest also got the tightness back like the first week after surgery. I called my Dr's office but they didn't seem concerned about me having a cold. Please help me like I said I am scarred my band slipped and thats why I got the reflux.

It would be stitched down but until the adhersions form around the band the band is suseptible to slipping. I am hoping like mad that I dont get a cough as I dont want mine to slip either as I am still in liquid phase. (4weeks)
