Constant bad heartburn NOT from too much restriction?

I am hoping that my constant heartburn is the result of some other issue then being too tight, because I really do not want an unfill. I feel that other then problems related to the heartburn (swelling causing PB'ing) I have perfect restriction. In fact, at one time I wanted a slight fill, but decided I would rather use self control. But for a few months now, it has been bad.

So I am asking, is there anyone out there that had problems that were not from being too tight, but another reason altogether?

Re: Constant bad heartburn NOT from too much restriction?

Hearburn/Acid Reflux is the most common side effect of banding. It can have very serious repurcussions so you need to seek some treatment immediately.

I just posted a blog here on LBT about what I found out, and no, I'm not too tight, but my reflux isn't to the point that I'd need an unfill (signs of needing an unfill are problems at night or getting tighter). Even I though started a treatment plan and I've had immediate relief. For more info, read the blog HERE
