lowe long time since I've been on and as usual I'm coming to you with a question. I was having sliming after ever meal about 2 huge mouth fulls. Then I would be fine. Then started with everything. My doctors nurse put me on all liquids for a fw days telling me it sounded like I'm swollen. I think I remember you saying your band slipped and you had no pain. Correct me if I'm wrong. Did you have any symptoms? The all liquids seem to be okay. But I am coughing I think I'm having an alergery attach to be honest. I told the nurse I was coughing she told me I'm panicking and to calm down. We will see I guess if I eer get to etsolids aan. Do you think I shoud wait or be seen by dr. Hey I finally got down to 186 from 232 banded 1/21/09. et me know thanks for your time and help.

Do not use any nsaids....i have learned from experience....i used nsaids and now have developed h pylori in my stomach from them and cannot get rid of it...i may have to be unfilled and start all over again....i am 15 months out from banding ......follow your doctors order.......banded and happy after 15 months -
