Well i have struggled with being over weight pretty much all of my life. I would lose some weight then just gain it right back. I finally decided i wanted to do something about it, and enrolled to have the lap band surgery. I was scared out of my mind but i had my family and my boyfriend there with me. My first fill went ok after surgery. I dont know which fill it was but the needle ended up in the wrong hole and the nurse had to get the surgeon in to help pull the needle out. after that i had to have fills done under floroscopy, then i just plain got scared of having to go in for a fill. i let it go to long, then this past april i was schedualed to have a port revision, that went well. now all i need is to get back on track.
