fiveholts714 0 Posted April 12, 2006 Dr. Green in Payson, Utah did it. He was great. He explained everything. He thinks I have an 11cc band (can you believe that I don't know!) and he ended up putting in 2.2 cc. He said it will be tighter tomorrow due to swelling. I can feel that it is tighter, but I am worried that I can still eat too much. He said to have Clear Liquids, but that yogurt and cottage cheese were ok. So I had some. I probably could have had more. I am just so paranoid that something will happen and this band won't work. There really wasn't much pain. He numbed it first, then put in needle. I kept swollowing barium liquid and tablets and he kept adjusting until he felt it was tight enough. I got to watch. He was so nice and said I could call him day and night with questions. So my experience was really good. I was kind of worried. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jessiebear 2 Posted April 12, 2006 YAY! Congrats! Sounds like you have a good doc. You're right to be cautious. Take it easy & do exactly what he says. & remember, it sometimes takes 2-3 weeks for a fill to really kick in. So have patience. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
