I am going in for surgery tomorrow due to a "possible" slippage. All the test results were inconclusive- they think 98% that it may have slipped since i have been experiencing major acid reflux over the past year. But again they arn't 100% sure. I guess the only way they can find out is to go in a check it out. I had the band done in '05 and since then they told me they have made a "new and improved" band and will be replacing it with that. I just really want the acid reflux to go away...

of course i am nervous for surgery again but i am looking forward to some possible relief. Has anyone gone in for a slippage/replacement surgery and did you have any success? Please let me know bc I am really hoping for the best and just wanted to see if anyone had any luck.

What did your barium swallow show? A slip is not typically diagnosed with surgery, that's pretty invasive. I'm assuming they did a barium swallow?

they did everything. honestly they have tested and tried everything with no conclusive results....which is why they opted for surgery. they said it might be so minor that they can't really see it on any of the test...
