Has My Band Slipped?

When I sneeze, go to the bathroom, or laugh hard, I get a crapping like feeling right under my rib cage for about a minute and then it goes away. I'm not really getting that much restriction either and I'm at 9cc in a 10cc band too. I get no pain when I eat though. I don't have any constant pain or anything. I'm going to see my doctor as soon as he comes back into town but I would like to know what's possibly going on with me before my appointment in two weeks. Have any of you had the same expirence and what was the outcome? Can anyone give me any tips on what to do until my appointment in 2 weeks?

From everything I've read, I have no firsthand knowledge thankfully, the main symptoms of a slip are the onset of reflux, nausea and vomiting because more stomach is being squeezed by the band which causes an obstruction.

Your symptoms sound very unusual, and maybe they're not related to your band at all.
