Hi, I'm new here :thumbup: I was banded around the middle of Dec. 09 and haven't had much of an issue with the band. My first one started recently when about twice in the past week I woke up due to a small 'burst' of pain while shifting/turning in my sleep. I sleep on my stomach and it seems to be when my general self is facing left and I go to rotate right that I get it. As I said its only happened a couple times but the most I have ever had before this was a bit of soreness around that area when I had made the mistake of eating a bit too much or working out too hard. Has anyone else ever had this? I can still eat perfectly fine and still get full/pressure as I'm eating so I really dont think its a slip or anything. I have contacted my doc, but haven't heard back from them yet so I was wondering if anyone here could help? Thanks all!
