    Is this an emergency? Band Slippage.

    My gallbladder ultrasound came back normal, so no stones. But the same thing happened to my mother back in 2009/10 hers wasn't functioning and it didn't show until she got a HIDA scan. So she wants me to have one done. I have noticed my stomach pain has lessoned ALOTsince my little deflate. The back pain is still there though. We'll see what happens. Thank you everyone for the well wishes!

    Just got back from Dr. My band looked fine, no slippage. It was a little tight, she said she took .2 out, so teeny deflate. She thinks it's my gallbladder. So I'm waiting to get my ultrasound now.

    I did end up calling my Dr office. They fit me in for tomorrow and I get to skip math, so it's a win-win! This back pain, especially, is unreal. Hopefully I'll get some kind of answer tomorrow.
  4. Hi all. I was banded a year ago this month. For the past 2-3 weeks I've been having horrible back pains. Stomach aches high up, in the center of my abdomen and pain around my port. Starts out as a dull ache and eventually cramps, like someone is squeezing my insides. Nausea. I've been feeling heartburn again, which I know is a sign of band slippage. Could the other stuff be symptoms of a slippage too? And is a slippage an emergency situation? Because I have finals and really don't have time for a doctor appointment, but if it's an emergency I'll definitely go.
