Has anyone experienced a slipped band?

Can you tell me what it feels like? I had my band too tight for a week and finally wasn't able to swallow my own spit. I can't remember how many times I threw up. I finally got a small unfill and now I feel funny. I don't want eat much...just a couple bites. I have lots of heartburn...though I always used to before the band. I have to go back on my Prilosec. The nausea and heartburn remind me so much of my preband time. I've been off the Prilosec since my banding. Not sure if this is a slip symptom or not.

Thanks for your help.

I would suggest posting in the complications area, or even life after removal. We've seen our share of slips and most of the information will be in one of those two places, I'd think.
