I had the same problem, so doc just said take over bandages off and go with steri strips. I also used and anti itch cream and they cleared up just fine.

Why not insurance approval prior?
CHEZNOEL replied to oklafarmgal's topic in PRE-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
Insurance should pay if they require the test. They even payed for my tests, and I paid the surgery. -
I got stuck on soft scramble eggs after my first fill!

HELP one week since band
CHEZNOEL replied to Startingover2012new's topic in POST-Operation Weight Loss Surgery Q&A
It will get better. It is a journey, but it will get better! -
Definitely talk to your surgeon a bout placement. An ounce of preparation can save you agony later one. I have been hit in my port area, it is low profile, and still was sore for two days!
-
I would agree that a small unfill may be order.
-
Same here... 5 weeks on liquids, but it is so worth the wait!

Committment = Success!

Portion sizes may be an issue, but it is not unusual for the body to pause once in a while on this journey. Check with your nutritionist, you may actually need less calories than you did in the beginning to keep losing.
-
Stop eating at least 30 minutes before fill, and then only liquids after. Doc will tell you the rest!
-
This too will pass!
-
Protein shakes!

Congrats on the weight loss so far. Many find they don't need a fill right away!

W/OUT THE LAPBAND WHO'S LOST 100 pounds
CHEZNOEL replied to SandyC2's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
] Thanks for the "sniff" now we know you never intended to do anything but mollify Alex. You owe us all a real apology. I do sincerely apologize to you if you found my honest posts hurtful in any way. -
It's the next time that counts. Learn from it and move on!
-
As you adjust you will need another fill.
-
I had the same experience... never again. It is not a race, it is a life style change!

I believe that docs shy away from it because of lack of patient compliance. That is what causes most problems. Follow the rules and you will do fine.
