July 9, 200719 yr :help: I was band on June 22, 2006. For the last 2 weeks I have been sweating(alot) and having lots of chills. Has anyone out there had this? Could it be an infection or leak? Help!!
July 9, 200719 yr That could be any one of a number of things. It sure sounds like a fever, which could be caused by an infection. But there isn't any reason to necessarily think it's band-related. Or did you mean 6/22/07? In any event, call a doctor!
July 9, 200719 yr Author I was band on June 22, 2006. I have not had any fever what so ever. I seem to be eating less and less everyday. I have had 3 fills. I am at 2.4 of a 4cc. I also have back pain.

Absolutely call a doctor! Those symptoms are nothing to ignore. Call your primary doctor though; there is no reason to think it's related to your band and most likely isn't. Take care and let us know how you're doing!
