Anyone Else??

Hi all, I had my band fitted back in June this year... the weight is coming off all be it very very slowly. I've had 3 fills and now have 7.25 in a 14ml.

My last fill was 4 weeks ago and I really felt it was working but maybe not quite in the green zone as yet. But this last week I can't keep anything other than liquids and soft foods down.

Anyone else encountered this? I'm waiting for a call back from my docs but thought I'd just ask on here first

It can sometimes take a while for a fill to kick in. Other factors can be stress, temperature and your menstrual cycle.

Sounds like your surgeon has been quite aggressive with fills (not necessarily a bad thing) and you may need a tiny unfill.

Your doc will be the best to guide you.

good luck

Getting even the slightest unfill can make a world of difference and put you in the green zone. I trust that you are taking tiny little bites and chewing your food well. If you are, then a slight unfill may be just what you need.
