ANOTHER QUESTION?

FOR THE LAST 2-3 DAYS---I FEEL LIKE I HAVE SWALLOWED SOMETHING THAT HAS NOT QUITE MAY IT DOWN AND IS STILL "STUCK IN MY CRAW". I CALLED DR TANNER'S OFFICE AND TALKED WITH REGINA.. SHE CALLED IN PRESCRIPTION FOR PEPCID... HAS ANYONE HAD THIS SENSATION? THANKS., CATHY
When i was there for my post-op, I told Dr. Tanner I was really having problems with heartburn... He was going to prescribe pepcid then...
when I talked to regina, i told her I was having still having issues with heartburn and i did not know if this feeling could be caused by H-----hernia. or what ?
It just feels uncomfortable...
I had the same thing about a week out from surgery. I described it as feeling a golfball in my lower throat. I did go in and he prescribed Zantac for it although he said it didn't really sound like a reflux issue. It subsided on it's own after a few days. Seems like this is a common complaint by the newly banded over on the main band board. I still take the Zantac daily due to taking a prescription anti-inflammatory for my arthritis. The theory is that it helps protect the tummy from the other medication.
Please feel free to ask us ANYTHING!! I don't think any of us mind at all!

I have had it if I eat too much or take that one bite too much. Also if I take my pills after I eat. Now I take my meds on an empty stomach with milk or hot cocoa. This also helps prevent them from sticking. The warmth helps everything relax as well.
