My husband was banded Nov 07 but didn't get his first fill for a year. (He thought if he took it really slow, he wouldn't have saggy skin) He got his first fill in November and it went smooth. He got another fill from a different fill center on Monday. Things went ok when he ate Monday but on Tuesday he can't eat or drink with out it coming up. He thinks his meds might of gotten stuck. It is especially worse when he lays down. Anyone ever experience that? We are going to call the fill center tomorrow.

He says he can't even drink anything. Everything keeps coming back up and he feels like he's stopped up. He's miserable. Does the band have a delayed reaction?

My husband got his first fill last November and went back on Monday for another. He was able to eat soft foods Monday night but yesterday it was restricted and still is today that he can't get anything down. He keeps throwing up when he lays down. He thinks his meds got stuck. We are going to call the fill center tomorrow. Anyone ever have that happen?

nearest place to the fill center was 168 miles from me :-( what is the normal cost?

We had to pay out of pocket. It was 24,000 +- in the US so we checked into Mexico. ($7,000) Had a great experience. The Drs. were great and so was our experience only now we need a fill. It's been toooo long.

My husband was banded in TJ Mexico in November. We are having a hard time finding a Dr to do the fills. We live in Southern Indiana. Any advise out there? He has started gaining his weight back.

my husband was banded in Mexico. We live in Newburgh, or southern most Indiana by Evansville. Looking for someone to do a fill.

Don't know if you caught it or not but it was my hubby who got the surgery. We went to mexico south of San Diego for his. It was 7,000 out of pocket. Insurance wouldn't cover it. He scheduled it about a week after he discovered the hospital and was comfortable He didn't go through any counceling which I wish he had because he has learned to cheat not and has started gaining his weight back

Great! We are in Evansville.

My husband is from Evansville but we went to Mexico to get it done because Insurance woundn't cover it.

My husband was self pay so we had no choice but to go out of the country. We went to Mexico and had a wonderful experience. Cost was 6999. Total!

Anybody have any experiences with fills in the Evansville Indiana area?
