    Fill frequency

    Hey everyone. First of all I want to introduce myself because this is my first post, though I've been lurking for a couple months. My name is Diana and I was banded Dec 17 2010. It's been such a crazy fast process and the aftercare is no different. I went to the seminar Nov 16th and literally a month and one day later I was banded. I'm covered for post op care for the next three months. However, since my insurance switched in 2011 and I don't know if the new insurance will cover fills and aftercare, my surgeon's office has been great about moving things along quickly so I can get the most out of these 3 months. I had my first fill yesterday, at 3 weeks post op. The nurse practitioner (who was great and quick with the fill! No pain or trouble finding the port thankfully) told me I should make the most of this 3 months period and I can come back as frequently as every week for fills if I'm still hungry. I totally trust his opinion, I know he's been doing this a long time, but I was just wondering if anyone else has had fills so frequently. Is there any reason not to go so frequently? Thanks! Diana
