My band slipped about a year ago, and I just now (March 8, 2012) got it fixed, but I am really paranoid. I was doing fine still on fill liquids and then last night after I drank a Protein shake, I felt some aching inside right where the band was, and it is still doing it a little this morning. It kinda feels the same as it did while I was living with a slipped band. I know I was in surgery 1.5 hours due to a bunch of scar tissue from the first surgery and that might be what it is, but I am truely worried since I did have a slipped band before. I don't ever want to have this surgery again so I'm paranoid.
Could it be I'm still healing even though it didn't do this during the earlier parts of this week? The doctor put like 5 cc's of Fluid in during surgery which scares me a lot. Could that be a problem? It seems liquids are going down fine. Maybe I'm just paranoid.
