5 years post op and I've been experiencing sores in my mouth and the roof of my mouth is dry and feels like it's scratched. It doesn't really hurt when I eat but concerned.
I have seen some articles posted on the ObesityHelp home page on how to get back on track. You might want to try searching those words in the search bar from the home page. I was able to pull up several articles.
It runs from the brain to the colon and right through the stomach

I don't have the band, but I almost always feel very hot and sweat after any meal. Not sure why, and none of my doctors can tell me why and what to do about it. I also get extremely tired after most meals. Meals that include carbs or no carbs.
It is very unpleasant, and so far I have not found a reason for it or a solution.

Ok so i was banded 2-16 just found out my band

a slipped band??? i have Pancreatic issues also going on, not
making digestive enzymes and I am curious what is what.
I do believe that when i eat getting the runny nose and excessive sweat is the band slippage.....? ANY info helpful
don't k ow about the other but runny nose usually means one is " full" and to stop eating.

I would suggest checking out and participating on the Menu thread on the RNY forum (just because that one is the most active). That way you can see what other folks are eating daily. Also check out eggface Shelly had WLS years ago and posts some of the best meals for folks that have had WLS.
I am a band to bypass revision. My insurance was Cigna and though they gave me a hard time about it at first, they ended up approving the revision. I had reflux so bad even with a completely empty band I was popping tums like they were candy. Since the revision no more reflux.
Good Luck
