Hang in there.

I may be in the same boat as you, I'm scheduled for an upper GI next Friday and with a total empty band its seem like a long time from now til next Friday. knowing that I'm able to eat way more than I have.But this is my time to challenge myself with my meals and going to the gym.I pray there is no slippage and I also pray for you.This our time to step it up just a little bit more then we have been doing. I'm down 80lb and feeling awesome and sure you are also.I have faith and I know everything will turn for the best.Best of Luck too you Blondi452

Hang in there!! I had an endoscopy done by a non bariatric doc and she couldn't even find the band!! I flipped out and called the surgeon..he started laughing!! (I had been in the hospital for 5 days already) So he came in to see me the next morning and looked at the pictures and showed me exactly where everything was..our pouch is SOOOOOOO little that non bariatric doctors look "right past" it and say it isn't there. None of the other drs could figure out what was wrong with me so he signed my discharge papers and out the door I went! 6 weeks later we figured out it was extremely low potassium. My surgeon also told me to never again have an endoscopy done by any dr that wasn't a bariatric doctor..they could damage the band. I hope your results come out good!!! You will be in my prayers!!

You have my prayers! You're doing so well and whatever's up with your band I believe you'll continue to meet your goals.
