I've found something similar - anything that turns 'syrup like' in the upper pouch can take a long time to go through my band when I'm a little too tight. Sounds like it could be swelling post op - give it a chance, suck on some ice cubes first then try small sips (think one or two boiled eggs in volume as a maximum load..). If you can't get any fluids in then I'd call someone....
