it is quite possible being Ill has tightened it, and also it could mean that if you're struggling to eat and drink that you need to have some more taken out to let it settle. I've just had a nightmare four weeks of over restriction and a defill a week ago, and now on milk and water for 7 days as the inflammation between the band and the stomach takes longer to settle than the inside, so it's bland liquid followed by bland mash for 7 days so there's no inside irritation to allow the outside swelling to fully settle.
If you're unable to get liquids down this is quite serious, the more mine was irritated the worse it got and I couldn't even swallow my own saliva! Contact your provider because they may wish to take a little more out so you then start building back up after the irritation has gone, I left mine too long as my son was having surgery and I couldn't get there, but they made me aware of various and quite serious issues that can occur.
