I had my Lapband surgery in November 2010. I recently had to have my gall bladder removed. Has anyone who had to have there gall bladder removed after lapband surgery had problems with fills? I was at my sweet spot prior to the surgery which was in August, I was losing 10lbs a month and now I feel like I am back to square one! any input would be greatly appreciated =)

I had my gallbladder removed six months after being banded but haven't had issues with fills. I also did not have to have an unfill for the surgery - you may have, and it's well known that being completely unfilled then refilled - your body will react differently to the fills.

Monitor your food and Fluid intake and retrain yourself on your band.

Thank you Acadia. They did take liquid out because they assumed it was my lapband making me so sick! I think they took out more then they said they did so it just completely through me off.
