Does anyone know what happens if your band slips. I have been banded since Oct 2010 and have lost over 5 stones. As i already said i havent had a fill since lastt feb. Suddenly at christmas i could not eat even pureed food without it sticking and if i try to eat anything i have to bring it up as the pain is horrible and being sick is the only way to feel better I can only take cup a soups. My doc is not in glasgow till 10th feb Would he just unfill some of do you need to an xray to check for slip. I was banded in Belgium and self funded Where would i get the x ray? Can anyone help?

If u cant eat u need to go to your GP or the local A and E .. Even tho you had it done privately our NHS still has a duty of care for anyone with health problems whether they are a result of private surgery or not. If they refuse to help you i would insist that they do or make a complaint to your local health authority or health trust. The NHS is looking to fund all those revisions for those breast implants that have been in the news recently and your surgery wasnt even cosmetic. You still are under the NHS whatever your had done .. good luck

Where are you located ?
