Hi everyone! Looooong time since I have posted, but I am now in Grad School and it takes a lot of my time!  I was wondering does after food being stuck in the chest does it lead to heartburn?  I have heard that after an episode the band tightens and I am assuming this is what has lead to the heartburn??? I have been having several episodes of food getting stuck (mainly my fault) but this last one (yesterday) was really bad! The food always manages to go down without me vomiting, but I haven't experienced heartburn like after being stuck! I am so worried that my band has slipped!  I am taking antacids but should I be extremely worried?
God give me the courage to change the things that I can
