It's been 9 months since I had the surgery and everything seemed to be fine until last month where I started to feel this heavy feeling on my chest specially when I wake up. I feel I want to burp so bad but I just cant, I have to wait for like 2 hours until I finally get it out. What is this exactley ? is it acid, heartburn ? it's true that I haven't been drinking Water a lot specially when the weather got cold. Could that probably be the reason ?. Please help

First of all, consult your doctor. You may be a tad overfilled. Another thing you could try is a warm drink (i drink tea) prior to bedtime. It works for me.

I really encourage you to see your doc. This is how my pain started. A year later I had herniated and the band had slipped and Water was getting stuck in my chest. Had a new larger band put in on 11/23 and now life feels like living again and my raging heartburn has gone away.

Never mess around with chest pain. Always see a Dr. You can't tell if its band related, indigestion or something to do with your heart so you should always get it checked out.

      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.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
