Connie-- my sister was banded by Dr Felts in Richardson last Sept. Last week she had exactly what you described and called the clinic. They said get in here fast!! She had a barium test and found the band had slipped or some of the stomach had gone up thru the band. They took the fluid out and put her on mushies for 2 weeks after which the band will be refilled. The thing she learned is that if ANY thing seems different, call the clinic. Hopes this helps. LEE
