  1. Happy 30th Birthday NoelleG!

  2. 5 years has passed since you registered at LapBandTalk! Happy 5th Anniversary NoelleG!

  3. He charged me $250.00. If you talk to Amy in the office she'll be able to give you more info. But I also had to have the flouro used on me which was another $450.00, but the insurance pays for that. Even though they would not pay for the surgery most insurances will pay for the flouroscopy. If you were banded in Mexico it is likely that they will have to use the flouro on you too. Dr Clark says that in mexico the surgeons ususally place the access port in the lower left part of your abdomen, and in the U.S. they place the porton the upper right side of your abdomen so that it is easier to access. Good luck. The fills are worth the cost. And if you really think about it you may only need to do 2 or 3 fills before you hit your sweet spot. This first fill for me has limited some of my food intake but definitely not enough. I know the next one should be much better.
  4. Hi there I just got my fill done with Dr. Clark one week ago. They were unable to find my port because the surgeon in Mexico placed it so far down. Plus there is a good amount of fat on my lower abdomen, but Dr Clark was awesome, he is a very friendly guy. Nice staff. I just moved to Indianapolis from Colorado and everone around here is much more friendly. Dr Clark is a real cutie too. The only thing that I didn't like about my adjustment is that he will only do 1cc at a time and will not do any more than that. So I really don't have restriction yet. I am going to call this week and see if they are willing to see me again to give me another fill, I desperately want to lose this weight and I can eat pretty large portions still. Good luck with your fill. I hope it works out well for you.
