I am sorry I don't know the answer to your question other than that I was told it would really hurt. BUT I am always asked when I go in for a fill if I have any nighttime coughing which can be a sign that you are too tight. ****I noticed you posted earlier about feeling like you now only eat when you are hungry and that you were feeling pretty good about things- did something happen since then? Did you recently have a fill?

My band slipped and it was really severe pain after eating anything and then turned into vomitting, so I was on liquids until I could get in to get it fixed.

Two weeks ago I had a violent spell of vommitting and my band slipped from that. The next day I woke up feeling starving, a starving feeling I have not felt since before my surgery. I knew something was wrong, and throughout the day I felt as if I could eat anything, I didn't do it, but I certainly could have. I felt really uncomfortable but no major pain. Than I started throwing up again and ever since than I had major pain in my chest and under my ribs. I was miserable. I had to have an upper GI and an EGD to determine if my band had slipped. My surgery is tuesday to reposition my band.

If you think there is something wrong, definitely go check it out.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
