hi i have been banded for 10 months now with only 18lbs loss. i have a 4cc band filled to 4cc with no restriction.i went for 10 fills over the 10 month period. sometimes when the dr. pulled back on the syringe the proper amount would be there and sometimes it wouldn't. i had an ugi in may which showed no restriction as per the radiologist. the nurse practioner said that everything look ok i need more fill. i am an x-ray tech and would often taken pictures of the band and also fluoro films too just to see if i have any restriction and nothing. i do have an appt. with the dr. on aug.5 to see what is going on with the band. i do want to maybe discuss bypass. any thoughts???????:confused2:
