slipped

Sep 28, 2009

Doctor called today, I have a slipped band.  Its not an emergency thing and I dont need to be on a liquid diet or anything and I have an appt on thur for him to explain what happened, and discuss options.   stay tuned for more...........

So at my appointment he showed me pictures of what a slip is.  It just means that the stitches came loose and the band slipped further down on my stomach, causing a larger pouch above the band and gastric fluid pools there causing reflux. So my band needs to be replaced and  I am waiting for the nurse to call with surgery date.  It will be done at the new Surgery Center as an outpatient.  Cool huh?
