Help. Spasm/Fluttering Around Band?!



Recommended Posts

I am 3 months post op and down 35 lbs. I have had no complications and just got my first fill a few weeks ago. Today I had a very weird fluttering feeling around my band. It felt like it was spasming. It didn't hurt, just made me nervous. Has anyone had this happen to them. It only lasted about 30 secs but happened about 3 times in 30 mins. I also hadn't eaten yet so it may have been my stomach growling? Any help would be greatly appreciated. thanks!!

Hi Mandy,

Well your stomach is a muscle, so it's not at all impossible for it to spasm and flutter like any other muscle. I suspect you just didn't feel it in the past because there wasn't a band for it to flutter against.

I honestly wouldn't worry about it unless it becomes a regular thing. Maybe just mention it to your doctor and see what they say.

Best wishes.

      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.
