Went To Get A Fill And Doc Said I Have A Leak



Recommended Posts

I was expecting a fill but he said you have a leak it rarely happens so you need surgery again we will call you. Has this happened to anyone I'm so disappointed

Not to me.

How many fills have you had. How did they verify you had a leak?

I'm so sorry if you have to have another surgery....I suffered a slip 6 months in and had to have the band repositioned...not nice. Faster recovery though

How did they know, had you lost all your Fluid ?who pays ? dose the insurance have to approve that?

I was told that a year ago. I went back to have it checked again and they put in 2 cc and it held. It is time for another fill now and I have moved so I am looking forward to seeing what the new doc says.

Get a second opinion before another surgery or just try having it filled again. Best wishes !

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
