I am really happy to see your posting. My surgery is on the 15th and I am very nervous and scared after reading these post. I went into it ok but my family starting scaring me and I started 2nd guessing my self. But seeing your post brought me back to my original thought of I need to make a change and the band is what is going to help me.

I am getting my surgery done on the 15th of July and I am getting very nervous from all the forums. But I already financed the procedure so I can can't back out but I really do not want to. What could you recommend I do where I do not experience this pain and band slip. I am so sorry to hear about your troubles.

Have you gone back to the doctors to see if it is associated with band?
