Hi Folks,

Does anyone else have to get fills via an x-ray machine? I am having my first fill since 2009. My port did something funny with the weight loss and that is the only way the Dr can get to it. I am very excited because we have health insurance again, and I feel like a newbie! Can't wait!!

Hi!

All my fills are done using fluoro now. Not really needed for finding my port, but to SEE everything inside. Congrats on getting back to your doctor. Best wishes :)

Heres a link to the post showing what mine looked like.

OMG that is too funny. I had my lap band filled yesterday and it had been a long time since i saw dr. due to no insurance. My surgery was in 2009 too. I've lost only 12lbs. I had 4cc but could eat anything. My doctor used an ultrasound to find the position. It was some what uncomfortable. It is tight now and im loving it.

I have an appointment to see my Dr on Tuesday! Don't feel bad Mrs. Richards, you got this! I joined my fitness pal to help me keep track of my calories. Keep me updated on your progress :)
