HELP!! How do I know if my band has slipped?

Hello,

I have been banded since 10-06-08. I started having trouble keeping food down the last few days and was wondering if my band has slipped. I was having stomach trouble like a stomach ache so I thought maybe it was a virus or something. Any info would help.

I'm having something similar. I'm able to keep food down but have pain in my stomach and esp. near my port site. It's hard to lie on my side and feels like it's pulling a lot. I am meeting with my surgeon this week so I am praying for positive answers. I wish I had a better answer for you.
