I haven't posted anything in a while.... Since then my band slipped X2.  I think my band might have been too tight and sometime end of December 2011 it slipped cause I noticed a lot of heart burn.  I was told that sometimes when patients get close to their goal weight they suffer from heart burn? so I started talking heartburn pills.  Finally, I had the Upper GI (sometime in Feb 2012)  confirmed that my band slipped. I had the liquid removed- had another Upper GI- it showed that my band did go back to the original position and i had a fill. Soon after, started developing horrible heart burn again - was told to keep taking heart burn medicine. Went for another Upper-GI and once again it showed another slip - the second one . So here I go again...the fluid was removed from the band and need to schedule another Upper GI.  I am very frustrated because since the slip I had gained over 20 lbs.  I don't understand what is going on. I don't even want the band anymore....thinking about doing a revision to the sleeve. I don't understand what happened???
