Lap band Slip

[cj033185 0]

Just wondering who in these rooms have experienced a slip? I went to the doctor last wee and they told me I have a slip. I have to go back in just a little over a week to see what they want to do, maybe a revisional surgery. I really do not want to have this as an option but I am willing to if I have to. You see, I was one of those who experienced some pain in between my shoulder baldes when I ate. The conclusion was it is referred pain from a nerve touching something (diaphram or stomach) dcotor is not really sure. So when the pain became intolerable I would vomit because I noticed when I got rid of the food out of the pouch the pain would go with it. Well needless to say some damage as occured. Now I have to pay the price. I'm just hoping I didn't let it go on for too long and I do not have to have another sureger. Please keep me in your thoughts. I am now down to 179 from 237 that's the good news.

Often time you can fix a slip in a month or so with a complete unfill. That is what you should do first then go back in for small fills.
