Dr. C -Question



Recommended Posts

I have stretched my band/ pouch, and when I spoke to the fill doc about it she said it was nothing to worry about and filled me anyway. Can you offer any insights as to why she might have done this?

Also why do you have to have an unfil in order for the pouch to go back to original size?

Thanks!

As long as you have restriction, if you have stretched your pouch it will remained enlarged. If you take away the restriction, sometimes everything goes back to normal, sometimes not. It's kind of a wait-and-see game.

did you go ahead and have a fill? If you have a streched pouched you need to get unfilled and let it rest before more damage is done. (just my opinion). Is your fill doctor new?
