Band Slipped???

For the last 2 weeks 90% of what I eat or drink gets stuck in my band and comes right back up. I have reflux all day (which I didnt have pre-op) and significant pain around the area of my port. Has anyone else had these types of symptoms? If so, What was the outcome? I have a abdominal ct scan tomorrow and a barium swollow on Friday. The Dr says he wont have any results till at least monday of next week. Any info you can offer would be great. Thanks

Wish I could help, but thinking of you and hope things get better soon.  Good luck and hope things turn out well for you.  

Thank you so much. This site certainly helps being able to talk to people who understand what its like fighting weight issues.

Hi Craig,

Did you recently have a fill?  Some of those symptons could be related to you being too tight.  It is very unusual to have a band slip, although not completely out of the question.  Let me know how you make out.

No, my band has been completely empty of about 6 months.

Wow, that is weird.  I hope you get the results soon.  Let us know!  Having my band slip is always on the back of my mind given the fact that I am so active now!

Its really starting to bother my energy levels and mood. I wont have any results till monday but I'll keep ya posted.

Had my barium swallow today. Dr said he is surprised any solid food id going down. He said liquid was barely dribbling through my band. I'm meeting with him Monday to discuss surgery options.

Hi Craig,

Did your doctor say why? How did your meeting go? 

I hope things work out for you Craig, Keep us posted.  Thoughts and prayers are with you
