[skinnigal79 1]

on wednesday 4days ago i had a stuck episode and vomited alot and that night i had server heart burn i took mylanta the next dayi found it was a bit heard to eat Soup it went down but found it felt like i had heart burn or pressur up top of my tummy and need to get the gas out so after id burp id feel a bit better and thats how ive been this whole 4days...i rang the dr on friday and she said maybe it still stuck that she would unfill so i could flush it out but i opted to wait out the week end on sloppy foods to see if any thing changes....but this morning i tryed soup again and it felt like id drank a hot coffee in my tummy and i need to burp so i only managed about 7 teaspoons of soup...so i need advice i havent vomited since wednesday and dont have reflux at night at all......what does a slipped band feel like???? and if its mild can they loosen it off completely and see if it settles back by itself instead of another surgury????? any help please

Usually a slip involves lots of vomiting and reflux with inability to get foods down. A mild slip can often be fixed by a complete unfill then a liquid diet for a period of time. Best bet, if you are not well after the weekend, see your doctor for an unfill.

If it was as bad as you say that night, you probably really irritated your band and even thick liquids could cause issues. But as mentioned, if still having issues after the weekend, see your doctor
