i have this problem very badly, and my band is by no means to tight,, i drank, 2 iced teas at a party this week end, before the grill was ready then proceded to eat potato salad 1 1/2 hot dogs, beans, and baked ziti, and it all wnet down with no problems,, , yettt, in the am i cant even swallow anything but boiling hot broth, ( dont drink coffe) by noon, about 1/2 the time i can ordere a hot brothy soup and it clears me out and i can eat,, its the middel of the summer, theres not much hot soup around, so i end up trhowing up, the food i eat with mucus, about 10 oz of food and 4-5 ozs of mucus then i can get food down, easily,, some days no matter how much i through up it will not clear.. and i end up wasteing my entier meal. i am always using a spit cup,,
to claify, i am not to tight, i chew my food well enough, ( ie soup) i have taken claite d but the pills have a jello like coating that makes them swell and it blocked my up for 2 days, if i had know about my post nasel drip was a problem i would have just opted for the bypass and hopefully had less problems, my wife had her band done, and shes lost like 90 lbs, i lost about 50 on my own to prove i could do the band, but since december i have lost like 5 lbs, my doctor thinks i am cheating the band and discounts my mucus problem and calls me an emigma. i end up eating things that will go through, like soups, shakes, slushies, , i have completely cut out fast food like mc donalds, and bk, now im at wawa, every day looking for soups,, ,, i hate this band?!?!?!?
