Very Weird Diagnosis

I have been experiencing some pain in my lower left abdomen; finally went to get it checked out and had an x-ray to make sure my band was OK (and my port). From the looks of the x-ray, it seems as though my band has completely moved to my right side, almost as if it wasn't attached at all....very strange. My band is completely deflated, and has been for almost a year now, and I've experienced no symptoms that something has slipped. Can the band actually MOVE or become DETATCHED? I'm waiting for my doctor to call me back, but it sounds like another surgery is my near future. I just can't find anything on this topic and wondered if any one has experienced this.

Thanks! :unsure:
