What are the symptoms of band erosion?

Can someone please tell me what the symptoms of band erosion are....For about 7 months I have had discomfort where my band is. The pain goes into my back..It has gotten worse every month and now I am concerned. It feels like I am having a constant gallbladder attack..It's like a burning, twisting, tightening sensation..If anyone has had a band erosion detected, please let me know the symptoms...Do you think that I have a band erosion?? Thank you

Cessation of weight loss, abdominal pain and port site infection are the most common symptoms.

Don't wait any longer, go see your doctor.

The best way to diagnose erosion is an upper endo. Usually the most common symptom is a loss of restriction with a lot of saline in your band.
