How long ago since you had a fill ?

Sounds like acid reflux , I would call your doc.

You might be too tight and its causing acid reflux or you might have acid reflux. either way your doc needs a call.

Not enough info. Are you newly banded? Did you just have a fill? I feel you should ask your doc this question. God bless. Patty

I had this feeling too with tight restriction. It was just uncomfortable, but not painful. It was definitely a feeling of pressure or of being slightly swollen. Having a slight unfill makes the issue go away.

I agree it could be from being too tight. But i also agree we could use some more info .

Well it looks like you were banded January 2008, so you are not new. If you had a recent fill, this could be causing the issue. You might want to go to fluids for 24-hours. However, if fluids are giving you a problem, I would be calling the doctor.

My guess is its reflux in which you still need to call your doc. this can casue your band problem . I would call him before you take anything for it as well .

Good luck let us know what happens

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
