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?

I would freaking call and speak to someone at your doctors office about your concern...good luck..and don't stop until your questions concerning this are answered...I'm sorry you are going through that.

Who is "she"? The doctor or a nurse etc.?

She attempted to take out your fill and couldn't get anything out and sent you home without doing an xray? I would call and demand someone to see me. They should be able to get out 100% of your fill. I'm wondering if you have any fill at all.

I am wondering if your tubing has disconnected from the port? Definitely call the doctor.

Thank u guys I went in for another fill and the ma couldn't even locate my port so they called the doctor down to the office I was at and he found it right away and only pulled out 1 cc which according to the chart I should have had a little over 5. He put 4 more cc and I wonder if there could be a leak or If the ma just was never in and injecting it into my body. I'm still a little puzzled but I think I'm going somewhere else for my fills from now on. I have to stick with true results but I'm going to Phoenix instead of tucson.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
