I have just found out today that my band has slipped. I have been experiencing vomitting since December 2011, and was admitted to hospital with severe dehydration. I am absolutely devastated, as this is going to cost me another operation, and I am still paying for the first one! I feel that if I had just had the willpower to diet sensibly, I would not be in this position, and I am worried about where I will find the funds to fix this. I am so depressed. Has anyone else out there experienced slippage of their band.

Many people have, yes. You are not alone. It is one possible complication of being banded. Are they trying conservative approach before reoperation? Such as an unfill and see if it goes back into place?

I hope you feel better soon!!

The band is empty, but I'm still experiencing vomitting,and am losing too much weight, and feel exhausted.

Thnaks for your response.

Mine slipped and I had to go through a second surgery...the worst part is the money spent. If the band has been your friend it will be good to get it fixed and keep your new figure.

Best wishes.

Mimi

I am so sorry you going thru this! Wishing you the best and an easy recovery.
