LAP-BAND Patients

  1. I had the LAP-BAND® surgery done a about 3 years ago everything went great, I lost over hundred pounds, then I had band slippage. The doctor went in and fixed the slippage but since then I have gained back 80 pounds. I been going back and forth in adding and taking liquid out. This has been going on for a little over a year. At times it was too tight and I would have fluid or food come up in the middle of the night. But now when I eat I feel the food stop and I feel full for a few minutes and then I can feel the food slip by the band. And other times there is no resitance and the food goes down with no problem and on a few occasions the food feels stuck and comes back up (Doesn't seem like any particular food causes this for me). I have been back to the doctor at least a dozen times for fills, the last time I went in and they decided to do a xray on me while I drank some fluid. The xray doctors told me that it look like my band is too tight and I should not add anymore to it. But how can it be too tight, It seems that I am eating with little or no resitance. :thumbup:
