No restriction all of a sudden....!

hey guys,

I had lap band surgery 21st June this year so not that long ago, I have 6cc in at the moment after 2 fills and had quite a high restriction. All of a sudden I feel nothing....! to late to call my surgeons office should I be worried? has this happened to anyone before?
I have looked online and looked a symptoms of a slip but dose not quite fit, I am worried my band has unbuckled or I have sprung a leak somewhere?

please if you have any info let me know, thanks

catfish87 had a similar experience. Your band could have slipped, unbuckled or lost it's Fluid. Or, are you consuming lots of slider foods?

Don't know if this is at all like your current issue....I've had episodes where there seemed to be absolutely NO Band at all....yet my 'hunger' level and interest in eating very much --compared to preOp levels---was impressively minimal.

Personally I've had much more satisfaction attending to the symptoms of 'hunger' and 'satiety' than 'restriction'.

IMHO the notion of 'restriction' or sensations thereof is over hyped. But that's just my opinion.

Pay attention to your own symptoms, yet without pain or other sign, and ability to eat in a 'post Band manner' without issue, would mean to me, that there's nothing of concern. YMMV.
