Fluid Loss??



Recommended Posts

I was banded in september, I have the 11cm band that I believe holds 10cc. I had my first fill in november of 4cc. January I had another fill of 1.3cc, bringing me up to 5.3cc. They checked and the first fill was still in the band. I had good restriction for a week or so and called to schedule another fill. I went in yesterday for a fill and there was only 1.3cc left in my band. I wanted to cry right there. The nurse who does my fills (under fluoro) said not to get too upset that it happens sometimes. I dont understand. If it is leaking I would expect it to be empty right? I am supposed to check back next week if I don't feel any restriction in a couple of days.

I am so confused, any help is greatly appreciated. I have only lost 25 pounds since september and that all came off within the first 3 weeks. I have bounced 2 pounds up and down here and there. I feel like such a failure and now if my band is leaking I don't know what I will do. I was a self pay in Mexico and have spent 375 three times for fills. I am broke and not losing. IT SUX

Help me, tell me it's going to be ok

:( :think :)
