stormy Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 I went to see my dr and told him about the surgery and he said he did not want to scare me but the band does slip and I need to be aware that it can go up or down and that this is something that happens and I should consider this before I do this. Talk about freaking me out. I know this can happen but I wonder what is the percentage of people that this happens too and how can I prevent this from happening. I really dont want this to happen to me or my husband. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phoenix Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 3% was the number Dr. Ortiz gave me. I worried about it every day for a few weeks. Doesn't everyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kittycat Posted August 2, 2008 Report Share Posted August 2, 2008 If you follow the guidelines, the likelihood of slippage is rare. If you have your fills under fluro, the band is seen and can be checked. This is not something I worry about at all...as long as you treat your band well, everything should be okay!
