How Much Saline @ First Fill?

[toshao 0]

I was banded on 7/15/10. My doc puts in 3cc at first. I have a 10 cc band. I just went for my first adjustment on Monday. He put 1 cc in the band. No fluro, just the Water test. I am feeling a little more restriction, but I think I might have a ways to go. Good luck to all!

My doc said that I could eat normally before I go in for my fills... just not to stuff myself.

I had my first fill yesterday and went so smooth! It was 4cc in a 10cc band, had to do the Water test and passed!:thumbup:

I got 4ccs on my first fill yesterday. I asked how he decides and he smiled and said, "experience." When I was leaving, the nurse said that my doc was a little aggressive with the first fill but that the pay off would be good - MY FINGERS ARE CROSSED! I am scheduled to go back on September 13.
