Lapband and slippage

Hi all I haven't met my doc yet and my appt. is in April. Ive been wondering if all docs sew the band to the stomach or if some don't. I will ask my doc when I meet him. I am self pay and am a nervous wreck about something going wrong. Especially band slippage.

    My band is the LapBand AP and it is sewn in.

    My Doc put several "stiches" around the band to prevent slipping. Sounds like a good idea to me!
