Default Problems flying with Band

Hi
Had my band fitted in Jan 08 everything has been fine now lost 64Lbs.Until I went on holiday and took a 4hr flight. since coming back my band is really tight and have had to go back to fluids only.
My provider told me this can happen due to the cabin pressure, I was not told of this when I had the op.
Don't want a de-fill as I hope it will settle, plus I'm losing loads at the moment.
Has anyone else suffered from this? and does it eventually settle?


thanks
sue
