    Could this be Restriction?

    I was having the same issue, two fills with not a lot of restriction - until the last one. Wow! I can hardly keep anything down, even liquid. I really have to be careful and listen to my body. The weight is falling off. No hunger,just hard to get in all of that protein. But I've lost 50 pounds in 2 1/2 months! Yahoo! I feel great! So glad I made the decision to have my band done.

    whats the difference???

    I would ask your friends that have had it done which dr they went to. If that doesn't work, find a dr who specializes in weight loss. In my area, I did the latter. He recommended it immediately, set me up with an appt in L.A., and within 4 weeks or so I had it done. I would definitely fight the age discrimination, in writing yourself and from a doctor; even people who understand your condition like a parent may help. If the insurance co believes it is going to have to pay for your back treatment they may elect to do your lapband early.
