band Slippage

Can anyone (you has had a slip) tell me the symptoms of band slippage?

I've never had a slip, but I know what the symptoms are.  You'll not be able to hold down even water, you'll be vomitting, have chest pain, and feel horrible.  If you're having these symptoms, see your surgeon immediately.

Just my field of expertise some of the symptons I experienced were:

a sudden case of reflux that was never there before

Pain when eating, especially when drinking... water was the worse

weight gain, because you start eating soft food which are high in calories just to get something down and as every bandster knows the "bad" stuff always manages to get down with no problems!

Thanks for the reply. My problem is sporatic. One day I have a bad day where I bring up all that I ate which makes my mealtime horrible. But the next day all was quiet on the western front. I really don't think it's a slip but maybe a too tight band. What do you think? I have a dr. appt a week from tomorrow, I guess i will wait unless it progresses, thanks again

How did your appt. go, sweetie?  Please keep us posted!
