Had some fluid taken out!

[Pepper28 82]

At 7.9cc's in a 10cc band I lost 23lbs in 2 months but it came along with coughing & reflux for the entire 8 weeks.

Went in & had an entire 1.0 removed they said my xray was showing signs of a slip. My band was originally positioned at 2:00 but the xray showed that its coiled around to 6:00 bcuz of the vomitting.

Now I feel absolutely NO restriction at all & I fear regaining the only 20lbs ive ever lost.

I go back May 7th for another xray to see if the band has returned to its original 2:00 position & also to see just how much Ive regained ????

Man, these responses are making me very nervous :/ Got a fill Thursday morning and have had a cough/sore throat ever since. .. throat soar like something is caught and is irritating (itching) the back of my throat. No vomiting, just constantly "clearing" my throat. I'm at 7.5 cc of a 10 cc band. I was banded July 18th of 2013 and this is the very FIRST time I feel like the band is working perfectly and I am in the green zone. ... I see reflux listed on here, but I've never had a problem with that either. Is a unfill my only option? ??

Itchy soar throat isnt one of the too tight symptoms, (I could be wrong) however, my problems did begin when I was filled to 7.5 in my 10cc band. I also had the perfect restriction there and was hardly ever hungry.

My pouch had began to bubble over my band so they took .3 out so now im at 7.2 and I feel hardly any restriction at all now. (i was banded August 1, 2013)

I go back in 2 weeks to see if the bubble is gone then I can get my .3 added back.

I take that back, i felt the restriction at 7.5 but 7.9 was when my problems started with the night coughs and when the bubble over my band developed.

May want to ask nurse or doctor abt the itchy/scratchy throat.

As long as theres no bubble no vomitting no reflux no night coughs you should be fine.
