So you called your surgeon who put the band in and he told you to go to the ER. There, the ER doctor ordered the tests, etc and sent you home with Vicoden? You were not seen by your or a LAP-BAND® surgeon, but a regular ER Dr.?

Have you talked to your LAP-BAND® Surgeon again? Has he examined your port?
