I had the same thing happen to me. I had gone to the doctors twice and they never seemed concerned with it. I told my neighbor about it and she told me to wash it with "HIBICLENS" I was shocked at how fast it healed up.
Day of surgery I had 5cc I have a 14 cc band. I just got a fill I'm now at 8.75cc. I now feel I'm where I should be with the band. I now feel full sooner and stop eating. I feel like i m in my happy place.
This was my biggest fear. I was so worried about bcbs turning me down because I didnt have a 5 year medical record of my weight. I went to True Results and I got results. Three months from time I walked in the door I was in having the band put on.
