What are the symptoms of slippage? I thought I read somewhere that coughing was one of them.

I am sorry I don't know the answer to your question other than that I was told it would really hurt. BUT I am always asked when I go in for a fill if I have any nighttime coughing which can be a sign that you are too tight. ****I noticed you posted earlier about feeling like you now only eat when you are hungry and that you were feeling pretty good about things- did something happen since then? Did you recently have a fill?

My band slipped and it was really severe pain after eating anything and then turned into vomitting, so I was on liquids until I could get in to get it fixed.

No, nothing has happened. I just had a cough and got paranoid. lol.

Two weeks ago I had a violent spell of vommitting and my band slipped from that. The next day I woke up feeling starving, a starving feeling I have not felt since before my surgery. I knew something was wrong, and throughout the day I felt as if I could eat anything, I didn't do it, but I certainly could have. I felt really uncomfortable but no major pain. Than I started throwing up again and ever since than I had major pain in my chest and under my ribs. I was miserable. I had to have an upper GI and an EGD to determine if my band had slipped. My surgery is tuesday to reposition my band.

If you think there is something wrong, definitely go check it out.
