    Lapband Slippage

    I hope it goes back to normal. I don't want to have to have surgery to fix it, if I do it'll be January before I could do it, so I could do the flex account.I do have insurance but still have to pay the 20% and they usually want that up front. I have been eating just a little at a time. I guess I'll find out next month. I'll just have to pray that it'll be ok. I read somewhere that 70% of the time it will fix itself I hope I'm in that 70%.

    Lapband Slippage

    I went for a fill yesterday and the nurse said my pouch was stretched, I just went about 2 1/2 months ago and all was fine. Since then I got a cold couldn't stop coughing and would throw up several times a day, more so in the mornings or during the night I would get to coughing and throw up. My regular doctor just gave me cough meds. (this went on for about 4 weeks) So I'm thinking that the throwing up may have caused the stretch, does anybody know anything about this? I haven't eat different than I have the last 3 years why would it all of a sudden stretch? I'm suppose to measure my food to a cup at a time and go back in 4 weeks to see my doctor. Does this usually fix itself? the nurse said yesterday that it hadn't slipped. Any ideas anyone?
