J & J Swedish Bands only $ for a fill how much have you paid ?

snowflake · September 18, 2006

I have recently had a J &J band done in Aug. I have lost 14 lbs. and have stopped. I have lost nothing in the past 2 weeks I think I'm ready for a fill my Dr. decided not to apply any fill during my surgery. Stated that some people have been having problems with the fill at time of surgery. Mine hold 11 CC and I have 0... I have tried to find a Dr. in

Atlanta GA I'm willing to drive to several surrounding states but I HATE to fly, and don't want tot go back to Mexico if at all possible. I can't find anyone reasonable with $ or that will follow another dr. So far best offer is $2000.00 for a life time of banding... The Dr. would probably die the day after I paid. And he is new on his own. Anyone know of better? Ga. Tenn., Ala, SC, Fl? Please help I'm A Self pay out close to 10,000.00 with everything so far.

I also have the Swedish Band. I'm in Saudi so I can't help you. If you don't mind me asking, why didn't you get the Inamed Band or look into fill doctors in your area prior to banding?

My doctor just charges 150.00 for a fill and uses fluro. He's in Cincinatti Ohio though.
