my band holds about 4cc's and i had a 2.3 ccs in it and it was good so i asked for another fill and now its way to tight so im going tomorrow to have some Fluid taken out. Danielle banded 11/29/07 weight at surgery 313 current weight 225 goal 180

i had my surgery 12/07 and now having hair loss. i was wondering if this was normal, how long it last for, any suggestions will be helpful. Thanks Danielle:crying:

I was banded in late Nov. and my doctor told me two weeks ago my port was tipped. Last week i had a horrible stomach virus and threw up twice and once was real bad. Ever since then i dont have any real restriction. I am only experiecing a tiny bit of heart burn. After i was sick i realized my band was sticking up against my skin, it was always real close to my skin but this was more than normal. Can anyone give me suggestions on what this may be. I dont want to rush to my doctors i was also wondering if maybe i deflated it, if thats even possible. thanks D-

yeah i can feel the port even the doctors assistant said it was very close to my skin that is why in the beginning they had no problems giving me fills. If the port/band would slip wouldnt i feel some pain. i have no pain. thanks and you guys are great for answering my questions. i really appreciate it. :thumbup: D-

flipped not tipped. it is tipped but i was wondering if i made it flip when i threw up. i know it is filled with liquid i thought with me being sick i some how caused a leak and made it deflate. i know i can go to the doctors at any time but i rather go to him if its something serious. i see him every 6 weeks and have to use a sick day from my job. thanks D-
