Anyone with actual diagnosed slippage, Help!

[LargeMediumSmall 3]

If there is anyone out there that has actual diagnosed band slippage I could use some help.

About a week and a half ago I had pain in my upper right side almost immediately after eating. BTW, been banded about 16 months now. The pain seemed so symptomatic of gallbladder. Well, not that I've ever really had gallbladder problems but from what I read it sounded like gallbladder. So I waited a few days, tried some natural remedies & then saw my doc (actually his. P.A.). She knows I have a lap band but apparently she knows nothing about the procedure or apparatus. She ordered an ultrasound. I suffered for a few days until my ultrasound. That was on Wed so I didn't expect to hear back until next week and of course I havn't.

Meanwhile, the pain sort of came and went and then I started getting reflux, day and night. So I went to my doc to have a bit of an unfill, Thursday. Since the pain was pretty much gone I didn't say much to him about it. I never thought it could be related to my band considering how far over to the right it was.

Anyway, even after my unfill I am having reflux, pain which worses when I am laying down. Worsens when I eat or drink, even in small sips (I've pretty much been on liquids for over a week now). When I roll over to my left side I can hear the Fluid slosh and then go down but the pain sort of worsens on my right.

It's so odd. It's not like one thing immediately triggers pain and one thing makes it stop. But drinking (and I'm sure eating) really makes the pain worse. Liquids are going down but not well. I have a 10cc band with 5cc in it.

I'm going to call on Monday to have them check it out, even before I hear from my family doc about the gall bladder.

I looked up the symptoms of slippage and NOW I seem to fit perfectly. I've lost 87 pounds and Im 20 pounds from my goal. I'd be ok if they had to remove it. I've worked hard on overcoming my food issues. But this pain is really getting annoying. It's tolerable, I don't need to go to the ER, but I was just wondering if anyone out there had actual diagnosed slippage and what your symptoms were.

Why do these things always happen on the weekends???
