Hi, I am hoping to have my Band out soon, i have had it for 7yrs no real  weight loss just lots of sickness until my esophagus was so inflamed  they emptied my fills and said that they wouldn't fill again, i have  been deflated for 5yrs, 3 months ago i started to eat a meal when all of  a sudden the meal felt like it had got stuck and slime came into my  mouth until i was sick, this is what happened when i use to get my fills  after a week i went to my GP who arranged a Barium swallow and a CT  scan both reported Band still in place.. it has now been 3months since i  ate a small meal just soups and blended fruit is staying down..I saw my  surgeon last week who said because i had my Lap Band fitted in Prague  then he would have to apply for funding to have it removed on the NHS has anyone else had problems regarding having the Band out on the NHS Help Please!!!!
