Hard Time With Fills?

[TX mom27 15]

Ok here is a bit of the back story. I was banded 5/16/12 that weekend I had a hard time drinking fluids.. so that Monday I went in for an unfil ( they put 3 cc during surgery ) that unfill I had 2 cc taken out. A month later we tried to put the 2 cc back in and it was just to much for me at the time, and had to take 1.2 cc out. Today I went in for my 2nd fill and could only tolerate another 1cc for a grand ol totaly of 2.8 cc in my 10cc band. The PA said that this isnt super common, so am I the only one. Has anyone else had this issue?

The lining in your stomach must be thicker than most or the fat layer around your stomach is thicker. Or, the doctor should have used a 14 cc band? As long as it works, should not be a problem. I don't see a downside?

I have this problem. If I get anything larger than. 5 cc at a time I swell up like crazy and can't get anything down. I have 5cc total after 6 fills and 2 unfills where they tried to be more aggressive. I may about 8 months out. I go in for another in 2 weeks and I'll probably only do like .25. Everyone its different.
