I was wondering if anyone knows some of the symptoms of having your band slip. Even though I got approval to go back to work, I'm wondering if I didn't over do. For two days I've more gas pains than usual without more gas, among other things. I was banded on May 30th and figured it was enough time.

Hi I dont think your band would slip so early from surgery. I just had my band slipped, removed and replaced. This happened after 6 years. Sometimes you have no symptoms.I has slight pain on my right side only and sometimes a feeling of tightness swallowing. This is all over now. I was rebanded on 07/10/12. Gas and pain over. Hope your feeling better. Keep walking it heals alot faster.

It can take a while to get all the gas out of your body after surgery. What types of food are you eating? Are you keeping food down?

Did insurance pay for your rebanding?

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
