Did doc ruin my band?

Ok, so I have had 4 fills and was at 6cc in a 10cc band. I was almost at my sweet spot. I went on my 9 month appointment and told the doc I was almost at my restriction. He said good and then he gave me a 1cc fill. I drank a cup of water and things were fine. Day and a half later I couldnt even swallow my own spit with out PBing. Ofcorse it was a friday and I had to work all weekend, I didnt want to get really sick so I called the doc's office. They had me come in, I was seen by a diffrent doc. I told her if she would just take out .5cc that it would help. I didnt see how much she took out she told me it was just .5cc. but she had a hard time getting into the port. And now I have no restriction at all! Is it possible that she could have broke the tip of the neddle off in the port and it floated into the band and put a hole in it? Or do you think she just took alot more then .5cc's out?:rolleyes:

Call your normal doctor and tell them your concerns, they may want to check the fluid level in your band, she could have taken out too much, or a number of other things could have happened. Dont wait though, call your doctor asap.
