Why regular check-ups matter
Maintaining the proper fit and function of your gastric band is crucial for achieving and maintaining significant weight loss.
Regular check-ups allow your doctor to:
- Tighten or loosen the band as needed to control your appetite and food intake
- To ensure the band is not too tight, which can cause vomiting or difficulty swallowing
- Monitor for any band slippage or stomach pouch enlargement
- Provide support and guidance as you navigate the dietary and lifestyle changes required for successful weight loss
When to reach out for a Gastric Band check-up
If you experience any of the following symptoms, it’s important to contact your doctor right away:
- Difficulty swallowing or eating
- Persistent nausea or vomiting
- Abdominal pain or discomfort
- Lack of weight loss or weight regain
