Hey everyone, I had my 2nd fill yesterday and I have a question I am hoping I can get an answer to. I was eating my supper and I started having this feeling of pressure and tightness in the lower part of my chest. It was hurting or painful pressure. Is this the restriction feeling that people say they have or what?

Yes I started feeling that also durning the month, and they find that I was to tight..So I had to get some taken out..Plus if you don't watch it, you can gain weight from it like I did..Every food I ate was hurting me until it was soft..So I started eatting the wrong foods like Carbs and I gained..So if it keeps up you might have to get some out..

I have never eaten so soon after a fill, but I have been pretty tight for several days after a fill. You should take it easy and give it a few days but you don't want to feel that way all the time. If you are still too tight after a week go see your doctor again for a slight unfill.

MY Dr. makes me stay on liquids and mushy food for 3 days after a fill. I have not have any problems doing it that way. Then on the 3-4 day I make sur that I chew extra well. The pain you are experiencing could be just not chewing good enough right after a fill. I have that every so often when I don't chew enough.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
