PAIN

[Debs MCkeown 0]

Hi all,Had my band fitted March 4,2014 also hiatus hernia repaired at same time.

Today I went for my 1st fill and had 4mls inserted. Was a painful experience as she could not locate port to start with??

Apparently it is in my crease????? Above my belly button.

I have been told they have changed the way things happen ie,That I wont start to lose weight till week 8??? This sort of threw me since I`ve lost 3 kilos (( apparently I did this myself,Nothing to do with band. Yeah go me (being sarcastic))

Just wondered if its the same in the U.S or is this just england??

And when will this pain ever stop???

Thanks in advance for your input much appreciated.

Mine is on the upper left of my belly and I am in the US. Not sure why they would put it in a crease. I don't have any issues with mine.

What pain do you want to stop? The pain from getting filled? The injection itself?
