Worried, about a prolapse

[imsunj 2]

Was banded May 9,2013. Got my first fill 4 weeks later. I did great until my 3rd fill in Aug. I was a little too tight and having reflux pretty bad and wasn't able to get my food down. So went to the dr and had some Fluid removed and immediately began to feel better, then about two weeks after that I got an awful stomach virus and was terribly sick for over a week. During this time I had more fluid removed to give my stomach a chance to heal and settle down from the virus and throwing up so much. We'll that was five weeks ago. I just went in today for an adjustment. I had gained 3 lbs, which didn't really surprise me since I lost almost 10 lbs in 6 days while I was sick. But today I was told I have a prolapse. I've got to go back in 4 weeks from today. If it doesn't look better then all of the fluid must be removed, wait another 6 weeks and check to see if it is any better, if not I will have to have surgery to reposition the band. Has anyone else had any problem like this?

Yes I did last year and never got back to where it once was. I was Up to 6.5 but only went up to 5 but will go in this week for 1cc more and hope that puts me cback in the green. I did maintain very well and did go off program from time to time gain 5 lbs at the most but it casme over fast with just a few days eatting right and SLOW I still have 15 lbs to go and really want to make it.

They took all the fuild out the day they discovered the proasp I surprized they didnt they do the same to you. Doc did say it will never work the same and it hasnt but I hope thats not how it works.
