  1. I got my lap-band in 2009 it was filled to 5.6, I had excellent restriction I had it checked via cat scan a month ago and they said it was in place and looked good. I had to go on a liquid diet for a day but the time I ate before that I still had restriction, today I was put under for a colonscopy and upper gi endoscopy after which he tells me he did not see the lap band or any sign of it whatsoever so it mustve slipped. I think if it slipped it had to of been caused by them doing this stuff today because I had restriction up until now, now absolutely zero restriction I can't even tell I have a lapband at all. I am panicking and not sure where to go from here or what I should ask for to check it. I don't see how it could suddenly just be gone and I am so angry and wish I would have never had the upper gi endoscopy and colonscopy since both those came back fine anyways.

    Ya if it wasn't for complete loss of restriction I probably wouldn't have believed them, but food isn't even slowing in the slighest it feels as if I have absolutely nothing and I felt more restriction when I got it even before I ever got my first fill. It's defintely feleing very very different and there is no way I can pay to have it re-done. They didn't want to do another cat scan on me since ive had three in my lifetime and they significantly up the cancer risk I guess. So at this point I have to wait until the Dr that did the upper gi endoscopy and colonscopy is open so I can get copies of the pictures to send to my surgeon. He said my stomach is normal size and he saw no sign of a lapband or a smaller stomach opening absolutely nothing.
