Leaking?

[Aprilsnewlife 7]

It has officially been six months since my surgery And I have yet to Feel restriction I thought it was because they were only giving me .1 mL every time I went in But on this last bill I talked her into giving me a half a cc She looked astonished and said it would not take it all Which is weird because I only should have 4 mL in my 10 Cc band. So she decided to check to see how much Fluid was in there and she could not get anything out. Acted like that was normal and sent me on my way. That does not seem normal to me especially since I am not feeling any restriction . Has anyone ever came across this problem?

Thats very odd. If she could not get any Fluid out, then she should have sent you in for an xray. Did you ask if there was a problem? Have you tried calling the doctors office for advise?

No Fluid came out of my tubing either and the Doc did give me an xray and founf there was a "bend" in the tubing and thought it may move and rectify itself.

However, although he didn't panic....he did seem concerned that if it didn't rectify itself...he would need to go back in and do it. He was concerned enough.

I would talk more to your surgeon about this.

Good luck!

I would definitely call Doctor about that. The Fluid had to go somewhere.

Thank you guys! Come to find out the nurse was hit and miss its a long story but they finally actually located my port which apparently is in a tuff spot or turned or something and gave me a good fill! I now have 6.5 cc in my 10 cc band and for my first time ever I feel totally restricted it was a long 5 months of no loosing but I am already making up for it! Since the fill I have lost 6 lb which was 3 days ago! So excited! Did anyone else take this long to finally get to your sweet spot? I'm curious?
