Recommended Posts

I went into the doctor yesterday and I had lost restriction about a week after my fill of 3.5 cc . He pulled out ..2 cc he gave me some theory that when I was done under fluroscopy that when the radilogist did not withdrawl the needle fast enought there for possibly leaked at that point.. I am thinking my port leaked anyone have any ideas or thought on losing a 1.5 cc .. is this normal? did i have a leak?

current fill is 3.2 cc saline

old fill was 3.5 cc fill under fluroscopy saline

Thanks

Lisa, you could have a small leak. I had one and it was repaired with a thicker solution that saline. If you are filled under flouro and still leak I would assume that is what is going on. You can be filled with a "fix a flat" solution. It is exactly like fixing a flat tire. Good luck.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
