Chest Pains and the band ?



Recommended Posts

DONT FREAK !! I am not sure if i am having anxiety attacks or what is going on . This has happened to me twice in the last month or so . Keep in mind I am under an UN GAWDLY amount of stress right now .

But I have been having some kind fo chest pains or pressure.

Both times happened when I did not get "StucK" but like it was just enough to say That's it your done eating.

Today I ate some egg noodles. Sometimes i can tolerate them sometimes i cant. So now Im having those pains again .

It hurts when I take a deep breathe sometimes.

I will go get this checked if it keeps up and when i have the money , just curious if anyone else experiences this ?

I posted about it a long time ago. Mine were sharp and quick but came back and they put me in the ER to rule out heart. It ended up being acid reflux which I suppose can be stress related too but mine was related to the band. They put me on protonix and I had my band removed because of it and the fact the band didn't work for me. I never had the reflux that went up to my throat and felt like heart burn so that's kind of why the reflux thing flew me for a loop even though I knew it wasn't my heart. Get it checked out, you know you should, take care, Nancy.:smile:

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
