Due to being too tight and acid reflex at night i went for an unfill....he ended up unfilling me all the way because the scan showed a "possible" slip. He wasnt sure what was going on with my band. It was definitely aggravated and swollen due to the vomiting. Doctor (mind you this isnt the doctor that did my surgery) right away is talking about a revision surgery. Don't they say that the band can fix itself if unfilled and giving some time. He wants me to go get a ct scan to see the band and then do a revision right away. Within a week time. Im not giving my band enough time to heal itself. Has this happened to anyone? band fix itself? Shouldn't we give my band atleast 2-4 weeks to calm down and then do a scan to see how it is doing instead of jumping into a ct scan and surgery? Shouldn't an x-ray show how the band is doing since he already seen it last week? I'm so upset he's running too fast! Because all i think he sees is $$$$$$ and i really dont want to think that way but now im not sure what to think about this guy!

Your band and stomach need to relax... You will be feeling better every day more and more once the swelling and aggregation goes down

UPDATE: I cancelled my CT Scan and going to see a new doctor this Friday.... I still think it's too early to talk bout revision surgery and doing a cat scan. I feel great, i have no acid reflux and everything is going down just great! can eat a cow! I feel like im healing just fine. It's been 22 days since unfill also sooo hopefully on Friday the xray will show some improvement on my band and i can stop thinking about this possible slip! Although, I did gain alot of weight but that's my fault! please pray pray pray!

@@Pinkygirl, what an ordeal you are going through!!

Keep your head up and keep us posted! Good luck!

I just had a adjustment Friday bc I was having reflux so bad that it put me in the ER they did a ctscan and found that my esophagus was dilated. So my surgeon wants to do a revision and he said the sleeve is the best way to go.
