  1. This is my first time on this website and had some questions about a possible band slippage. For the last 3 days I've had pressure in my chest no matter what I eat or drink. My surgery was 1-9-09 and have had problems off and on with belching, gas, constipation and occasional chest pressure. It's only gotten worse lately. My doctor's not available until Monday, but how do I know if it's a major problem and call the on-call doctor. It's not painful, no vomiting ... just uncomfortable, even after a day of hot liquids. Any advice?
