Really confused: my doc says he fills the band the right amount when he puts it in and not again. Says he rarely will do a 'fill' and feels they are the reason for side effects like erosion/slipage/reflux. Some people on this site talk about all their fills and how they were really hungry just a few weeks after surgery until they got a fill. My doc says if you need a fill you are not eating right. I'm I missing a piece of this puzzle? Are some people not getting any fluid in there band during the initial surgery?
