Hi, not been on here for a long time, I really struggled with my band , lost hardly anything in the last year , but since May I had a fill and finally I started to lose weight. Lost 3 stone. I went to see the nurse a few weeks ago and she suggested a 0.5 ml fill, taking my 10ml band up to 7.75.
Well, now I can only eat a few mouthfuls of food, which is good, eating child size portions, which is also good.
Today though I fell asleep this afternoon after working a night shift and I vomited in my sleep, I actually woke up choking. Never happened before but I am feeling like its reflux/acid as I have that burn in the back of my throat.
Would you say the band is now too tight and it's causing reflux or is this just possibly a one off thing,
I've been liking it that eating food is becoming more or a chore than a pleasure , so I don't really want it loosened, but then I don't want to be choking in my sleep either!
