I was banded in October of 2008. I was well on my way to many comobidities when I was banded. My band worked great, until march of 2010 when my band slipped....the slip was totally my fault, eating too fast, getting stuck and throwing up....i was not diagnosed with the slip till June of 2010. I chose to wait as long as possible to have the slip fixed, I wanted to enjoy my summer. I made it till January of 2011...had my revision surgery. Fast forward march 2012... I have gained back most of the lap and weight I lost back...back to the dr. To find out what is wrong...fill is not making it to the band..not sure why or for how long....turns out it was a problem with the tubing from the port to the band...fill schedualed for may 16th...I am hoping for a large fill to get back on the bandwagon.....
