I was banded 3/08 and some time around 11/08, after losing 60 lbs, I had a slip. My syptoms were: eating hurt and I had to throw almost everything up-even some liquids. I had heart burn and night coughing. I couldn't burp. I couldn't eat sitting down or with my bra on. I would have to unhook my bra when I ate. It took Kaiser until March to take the fluid out so the stomach would hopefully correct itself. We're not sure how it slipped. I did get the flu and was heeving for a night, before my doc gave me anti-nausea meds.
