reshiapooh96 31 Posted October 6, 2012 Yes, I was told 3 times by my Dr. that the band needs to go. We tried another fill on Wednesday and I was right back in there in Thursday morning to have the Fluid back out again. I guess I'm in denial and hate the position that I'm in now. This last attempt convinced me that the band really must go. I was told that I would have to wait 6 months after the band removal b-4 I could have another procedure done. I only have about 40 lbs to go B-4 reaching MY own goal weight. I'm afraid and just don't know what to do. I could gain back the 40 lbs that was lost in a 6 months waiting period. And if that were the case, I wouldn't have to worry about only losing 40, B/C then it would be 80 lbs......LOL. But safety comes first. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
