Hey i found one Smashing Pumpkins

It's rare to have a band slipped but there are some symptoms that can help you to know if you have that problem: Vomit, cramps, you don't feel restriction and you don't feel saciety anymore and most of the times you stop loosing weight as the only clue with no symptoms so i think you should be submmited to a barium swallow test under flouroscopy and that test will give you the diagnosis with no doubt and something good for you is that you don't need to take the band out, you can be operated by laparascopy abd you will have the band open and put it in the right position up in the stomach and close again the band. You shouldn't worry about it.

I'm really sorry if somebody feel like i'm attacking the persons, that was not my intention, i just say the reasons of a slipped band in general, i'm not blaming nobody, like i said, it's not a big deal, it's a simple procedure and the persons that are making this surgery shouldn't worry about it

I'm not banded, i'm administrator in the doctor office, i talk with the patients and after the surgery i recommend this page and advise to them that this is a good therapy and they would find people that are going trought the same problems, that here they would find a help support and friends, i'm not making publicity, i'm not here to win clients, i'm here because i recommend this place and i check around every once and a while.

I'm not a doctor, i'm a lawyer, i work with surgeons and i know all about the lap band process, i'm here because this is a page that i recommend to our patients. If you follow your diet instructions then the slippage was not your fault, the band it's desing to be in your stomach and take a lot of preassure, if the doctor put the correct preassure and the stitches that are necesary even if it is a lot of years the band don't slip, one thing that could happen is maybe that the band was not a god one, but it doesn't slip for natural causes unless you eat something in bad conditions and you vomit a lot.

Your right about the vomiting, but that should not affect the band only if you vomit often, don't worry about the procedure, it's a simple one and i don't think you would have complications, even the best chef burns the soap so this thinks happens.

Well, patients shouldn't vomite, if they did it's because they didn't follow correctly the diet, coughing it's not a problem two because it's not a hard movement of your body, if the band wasn't put correctly then when you have coough you can slipped the band.

Well actualy chewing gum shouldn't affect your liquids diet, go to your doctor to find out if you have a complication.

Cocakk: The slipped band it's a complication because two possible reasons. 1.-You didn't follow the instructions of your diets. 2.-The surgeon didn't put the band correctly. What you are going to expect? another surgery, dont worry because it's an easy surgery and i don't think you would have complications about it, my advise it's to follow your diet and instructions for your doctor or do research of the doctor that make you the surgery because maybe he didn't adjust the band correctly, hope this information help you, i work with a surgeon so feel free to ask me questions about procedures.

Hello Lyndsey: I work in Tijuana with a surgeon, i'm not here to make publicity, i'm here because i refferr our patients here as a therapy. Mexico have bad and good surgeons, here we have a lot of surgeons that are cheaper but we have a lot of professionals here, surgery it's an important issue and before we make desicion we need to research a lot of the surgeon, aks for testimonials and talk even to patients that they had banded before. For legal issues the doctors need to have a copy of all the documents you need, like Alexandra said, call every day and they will notice that you really need thoose pappers. Don't think that Mexico was a bad choice, Mexico it's a beautifull country with beautifull people unfortunatelly you fall with the wrong doctor, call everyday to the doctor and if you don't see response everybody here we will think in plan "b" Hope everything turn ok
