Heart Burn

bluedolphin · 01-05-2008, 07:12 PM

I had a fill on Wednsday and I have had heart burn almost right away. I was kind of thinking that the band is too full. I did call the doc's office but didn't get a return call. I will call again Monday but, I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem?
Thanks Much.:help:

Are you able to keep liquids and food down?

I am able to keep liquids down as long as I don't drink them to fast. Food is okay. I am not able to eat breakfast, but from what I have read that is pretty common, I have a hard time with lunch but I am okay with dinner.

I'm not an expert at this because I haven't experienced this, but it doesn't sound like you are too filled because you can keep food down. Maybe your doctor could recommend a heartburn medicine for you.

Make sure you are eating very slowly and chewing very well. Sometimes if I eat too fast or don't chew good enough, I feel pressure in my chest, but it only last a few seconds. Are you having heartburn all the time or just when you eat or drink?
