Band Slippage?

I was banded on 12/15/11 and had my first fill on 1/15/11. I was going along fine until about a month ago. I just started to feel too tight, so I went into the Drs and had an unfill. Still too tight. I returned 2 weeks later and the removed all of the fluid, so I have an empty band. I can't keep anything down, not even pudding or yogurt. I don't really have any other symptoms besides a sore throat from all of the vomiting. Im going back to the Drs later this week to see what the next step is. Does this sound like a band slip? If I did have a slip, what are my options?

Thanks!!

Unfortunately, this does sound like a slip. Do not feel down...it might not be at all. To confirm, you will most likely have a barium swallow. Hopefully you have nothing to worry about.
