I have had my band for almost 20 years. Aside from a port replacement 6 years ago, I have been very happy.
i reached my goal weight , all good.
about a year ago I developed odd neurological/ autoimmune symptoms. Vision, dizzy , tired, confusion, rash etc
then two weeks ago, my band slipped, I had gained about 15 pounds in the last 6 months. After 7 days of total restriction ( no food or water getting through) my port was removed in by emergency surgery, the band will be removed in a week or two.
My question is , are the two issues related ?
I have been to many docs about my neuro / immune symptoms and they are baffled . It seems so odd my band would do this at the same time ?
