Hi Alex,

Havent been here in 7 months and just saw your post. I didnt know about your band slippage. I hope you get a new band soon. I just moved to Georgia from TX and cant find a doctor to do my fills. Not one so far in Atlanta who will take insurance and the ones that take cash want way too much $. So I sit with no restriction and a lot of weight gain since I have not had adequate fill since August 2006. Anyway, hang in there.

Babs in GA

334/180/2-- teens???

That is awful, I would definitely look further out and even drive if you are gaining back what you've lost, it just isn't worth it, you don't want to end up back where you started...hang in there.

Babs,

Have you thought of using Dr. C in Cinncinnati? I know it is a drive form GA.,

but.....you will get your fill AND get to see the best Dr. ever at the same time!

I think he charges $150.00 for fills. Just a thought.....or you can check fill centers of America. I think they have one as close as Tenn.

Good Luck and welcome to GA!! I am 25 min south of the city.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
