    I just learned of this site. i would like to introduce myself. My name is Lynda and I had lapband in Aug. I have since lost 60lbs. and feel great. The only complaint I have is trying to adjust to my fills. I have a problem with being able to adjust and my band getting irritated and having to remove all the fluid. Then I go back to where I left off. So I guess I am at a platueau. Wondering if anyone else has problems with tehir fillls.

    Thank you both for replying. I appreciate the information you gave me Amanda. It helps alot, because some of that infomation really makes since and I think that is why I was having problems. I am always pretty careful about eating light and drinking the fluids, but with the schedule of doing it will make the difference. I was never told that you had to give the stoma time to rest and heal, but is understandable. I have had my fill taken out on two different occassions and the doctor also told me that when you are under alot of stress the stoma can become inflamed and when they take the fluid out for about 1-2 weeks it gives it the opportunity to recover.
