Some but not all signs could be: pain, heart burn/reflux, night cough, inability to eat and/or drink, trouble eating so you have to resort to only slider foods.

Don't ever try to self diagnose a slip. Go see your surgeon and let him help.

The only sign I had to my slip was a nightime cough and severe reflux where I had never had it before. I sufferred for 4 mths cuz I was afraid my dr would unfill me. And unfill he did. Tried to get it back into place by just an unfill but it wasn't to be.

Had a sleeve revision on July 16th. After a year of a slipped band.
