Is my band too tight?

I was banded 6/9/09 but because of scheduling conflicts, I didn't get a fill unitl 8/31. I got 3 cc's and I could tell a difference. But 2 weeks ago I tasted a small piece of roast. It went down fine but a little while later I tried to drink some water and the water wouldn't go down. For 2 days everything I ate got stuck. I could sip on liquid but even pudding would stay. Now anytime I eat or drink I get the brick in the chest feeling and burp unless I eat very small bites and very very slow. Could I be at restriction or should I be worried? I have lost 39lbs since surgery and 65 all together so I am happy about that. But it is hard to live like this. Thanks!

Michelle,
My advice CALL YOUR DOCTOR !!! Not saying it's anything, but you need to be checked to make sure. Be safe then sorry.

it could be that you didn't wait long enough to drink... sometimes i can't drin****il about a hour after i eat...especially something like roast....and that brick feelings could mean your not chewing your food good enough or your eating to much on your spoon or fork. Good Luck and I would definately call the dr.
