Swallow test cant see band

[taysidebell 176]

Just back at dietician to see how I have gotten on from last fill and was also sent for swallow test. He had reviewed the test shows no restriction and he can't see my band back to surgical team on Tuesday advised to start to think about conversation to either sleeve or by pass Has anyone had a slipped band? If so what happened next?

The dietician "can't see" your band under fluoro? And your dietician suggested you convert to something else?

Are you having any adverse symptoms or problems?

You are 20 pounds away from your goal, why would you need bypass or sleeve. That seems like a terrible recommendation. If the bad slipped they should be able to go in and put it back on.

Yes team thought I had 8.5 in my band pulled all Fluid out to check restriction and only had 6.5 I also started to put on weight 50lb The team then refilled to 8,5 and was instantly too tight so removed a little now restriction varies tight am loose pm that when sent for new swallow test and it showed no restriction Iam in the uk and my surgeon does not do bands now. Booked to see the full team on Monday
