2nd fill today- Lost 1cc?



Recommended Posts

So today I had my second fill. Apparently when he aspirated the Fluid he only took out 2cc's. At my first fill he put 1cc in addition to the 2cc's that were already in there. He said that Fluid can hang out in the curves of the band?!?!

I go back in 4 weeks to see if I lost any more fluid. I should have a total of 4cc's but only can account for 3cc's now.

Anyone else experience this problem? Could it be a leak?

Also noticed this A.M. a bruse at my fill site. He really poked around in there this time...

I had the same exact thing... I went back yesterday for another fill and a check and this time only .5cc was missing... he said he was okay with that as long as it wasn't 2-3ccs. I am self pay so I was very nervous it was a leak but he said if it were a slow leak he would just do more frequent fills on me so I wouldn't have to dish out cash for another surgery... He has only had one other person have a leak and she was a self pay too so this is what has been working with her.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
