:thumbup:I went for a fill today and I've lost 12 pounds this month! I was really happy because I was sick for one week and had birthday stuff (lots of food) another week, so I really cracked down this past week before the appointment and it paid off. He also checked and he had put in 6.8 ccs last time and there was only about 5 ccs in there this time, so the fluid went somewhere! He said usually if you have a leak it is a fast leak and the restriction is gone by the time you get home, so he doesn't think it's a leak. Sometimes I guess it gets absorbed or something? But I can't complain, it just means that regular fills are what I need and that my instincts were right, there was less fluid in there. He put me up to 7.3ccs. I've only been drinking fluids, but I'll let you know how that goes.

 

I'm down 68 pounds!!!

Thanks! He said if I did have a leak, he just goes in and fixes it. They can do it under local anesthesia and he made it sound like it wasn't a really big deal. Of course, I think anytime they "go in" it's a big deal, so I'm happy that he doesn't think it's a leak.
