I had my surgery on 3/29 and now up to 3.5 in my band (first fill of 1 cc last week). I didn't know what sliming was until I got that fill. So now it happens a lot and I'm concerned that I have extended my pouch or have slippage. I'm supposed to go back next week for a fill but kinda worried. Need more information on this sliming. I chew my food well and still gets stuck so I guess that is one of my reasons that I slime like this. This is so gross.

After your fill last week did you follow a liquid diet for a day or 2 and then soft foods? If not, you could have irritated your band even more than the normal swelling you would get from a fill. I have done that before and had to have some fluid removed. Both times I went back a week later, had the same amount put back in and was really careful with what I ate and had no problem. So, it's not that you may be too tight, just irritated.
