I also had a similar problem like yours:( def feel we will get back on track:) I had an over fill about 5 months ago...I take on the blame my surgeon is the best he wanted to unfill me a few times I refused in fear of going backwards:(( and look where it has got me 10 extra Lbs and a er bill))...I ended up having upper gi before my run to er so i knew my band was fine and in place but the heartburn was over bearing and had been for awhile:(( but it finally got so bad I went to er thinking I was having a gallbladder issue (since my gi/swallow test was good with no issues i just knew it wasnt my band...lol..dont self diagnose:) with bile and pain wrapping around my rib cage and pain in lower shoulder Well Long Story Short I had found out I had gotten aspiration pneumonia the heartburn and up all night choking on food not passing my band even after 5 or more hrs...Blah Dont Want To Ever Go There Again...my band was still irritated from being over and was causing was my issue...So I Was Unfilled ( Now unfilled a month gained 10lbs:'(( My biggest fear not wanting to go backwards has happened...but this is my fault now time for getting back on track I made it 70lbs down before all of this...my goal is 170 started @ 265lb i was banded in feb 2012 I was @ 186 before complete unfill...And Am Determined To Hit That goal And Go Even Futher;)) It Will Always Be A Battle For Me But One Step @ A Time;))
