twinmomleb 3 Posted November 15, 2012 Just told today, what I already feared... My band has slipped. Been 1 yr post op this week and down 60 lbs. I felt like I was making slow but steady progress. My Dr told me he has never had an i-band slip before. Anyone else out there had this happen? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mayasgram 351 Posted November 15, 2012 How do you know without the Dr saying it that your band has slipped. I mean does it feel weird .I know others have lots of problems with reflux and vomiting did that happen to you?/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
twinmomleb 3 Posted November 15, 2012 An I band is a lap band with a plication. My clue was that over night I literally couldn't keep anything down, not even ice. It was out of the blue, and not after a fill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
