Help! I'm Paranoid now!

I'm asking this here because I'm afraid where I originally posted it might not get seen and I'm really kinda scared. I appreciate any help!


On July 2nd, I had a complete unfill -- I was having extreme heartburn and couldn't eat a lot of anything, but I was not vomiting often (I did ONCE, but it wasn't an extreme episode). My doctor does all the fills/unfills under flouroscopy, so when they originally were going to take a small amount out and looked at the picture, he said I was on the verge of a slip (I think the kind where part of the pouch wants to go over the band), so he was going to completely unfill to let it heal. Liquids & mushies for 2 weeks.

What does it feel like on that type of slip -- part of the stomach/pouch wanting to hang over the band? How does one know if that's actually happened -- doesn't liquid/mushies or basically anything that you consume get stuck in that "overhang"?

I'm so paranoid about it now, that I'm afraid it has slipped. Last night I had so much gas & bloating that it made me feel nauseas a little. I had ONE bite of a small piece of very tender brisket that I chewed into a mush and I was real tired after having to get up very early, so I'd like to attribute that feeling to being worn out and the small amount of grease from the meat causing the gas. That was all I ate though -- everything else has been my full liquids.

But I'm noticing today that I don't have much of an appetite -- shouldn't I have MORE of an appetite with a complete unfill?

Now I'm worried about it and I've tried to search the forum for similar circumstances, but most of what I've found has pertained to a "regular slip" (if there is such a thing).

Anyone have any experience with this kind of slip or can anyone shed any light on this for me?

Thanks for any help!

Can't help on the slip questions. Certainly keep close watch.
