Eveband

I just had the same thing happen, six days , I went to emergency ( Canada ) and they removed my port, my band had slipped.

they are removing the band in a week or two.

hoping for the sleeve :(

I have had my band for almost 20 years. Aside from a port replacement 6 years ago, I have been very happy.

i reached my goal weight , all good.

about a year ago I developed odd neurological/ autoimmune symptoms. Vision, dizzy , tired, confusion, rash etc

then two weeks ago, my band slipped, I had gained about 15 pounds in the last 6 months. After 7 days of total restriction ( no food or Water getting through) my port was removed in by emergency surgery, the band will be removed in a week or two.

My question is , are the two issues related ?

I have been to many docs about my neuro / immune symptoms and they are baffled . It seems so odd my band would do this at the same time ?
