SClapband

Had a horrible experience with the PA and Dr. Strickland not returning my calls over 2 weeks. Perhaps it would be good for this office to have a system to submit e-mail questions.

:sad:I had lb surgery over a year ago and have lost 95 pounds. However, after the last fill, I experienced a lot of vomiting and reflux. I finally had the band loosened by about 0.5 cc, but it didn't help. So, the next visit they totally deflated the band and I had an upper GI on the same day. The radiologist noted that liquids were passing fine, but I had some solids in the esophagus. Now my lb doc wants me to do a manometry test thinking I may have esophageal dysmotility. As soon as they deflated the band, no more reflux or vomiting, and I've been fine for over a week. Anyone out there had an experience like this?
