Slipped Lap Band

:unsure: I hear talk about the lap band slipping, how would you know if that has happened? I am curious because I had mine set just like I wanted it, was able to eat like I needed to , was keeping my weight down and now all of a sudden I can eat anything, I am hoping it is just that I need a fill!!! Any info would help, thanks alot!!!!

I had this discussion with my Dr. today at a fill apt. She said you will know if it slips because you will not be able to keep anything down not even liquids. She said what causes the band to slip is usually throwing up because it forces the stomach below the band up through it. Think you just need a fill!:D

If your band slips you will be puking your guts up with everything
