symptoms of band slipping

I'm curious if anyone can tell me what it feels like to have your band slip. I'm 15 months post surgery and have had about half a dozen sliming to the point of gagging episodes, but about a week ago I got nauseated and actually threw up. Now the day after that I started coughing and my throat/chest felt weird. Today I found out I have acute bronchitis, but since I've had that before and it never felt like this, I'm worried. Is it possible that my band came up so far as to cause problems in my airway?
I'm hoping I'm paranoid, but if anybody can shed some light I'd appreciate it!
Thanks,
Candy
