I have been experiencing crampy pain for the past two days. I am pretty sure it is gas due to a carbonated drink I consumed two days ago, but I was worried that there might be a complication with my band. Is there any pain when the band slips?

Thank you for your help!

I don't know if it is the same for everyone but I just found out today (from a scope) that my band has slipped. I have been experiencing pain since April and it has gotten severe in the last 2 weeks. How are you feeling now? Did you try some gasX to see if that might help?

The pain subsided after about four days...becoming less severe as the days went by. I am not sure what the issue was. I went back to eating mushies for a little while. I am not sure if this had anything do to with why the pain is gone or not. I have an appointment for another fill in a few weeks.

Are they going to try to unfill your band all of the way to see if it will correct itself, or will you have to have surgery?

Hope you are doing ok.
