I had LB back in 2003 and all went well until about 2006 when i had a slip and had to have my band replaced as I could not even keep water down. Now I am having the same issue. I have nothing in my band but cannot keep foods down, cannot eat in the morning and sometimes even my morning coffee does not stay down due to the accumulation of saliva from during the night. I have gained a little weight back because I’m basically not eating any more, except ice cream and anything that melts in my mouth and stays down. I am worried that if I go back to my Dr they won’t replace the band again and take it out and I know I won’t cope with them taking it out.

I had severe shoulder pain after surgery from the moment I woke up. I had my band replaced due to it slipping and the pain has gone. The only time it comes back is when I have eaten and instead of feeling I have a full belly, I have pain in my shoulder. It is common and is a referred paid from having your diaphragm expanded.
