Mystalia 0 Posted October 10, 2007 Hello To All!!! I am new to this group, but I read some of the posts and decided to join. I was banded in February of this year and as of July of this year, lost 42 pounds. I have been having problems with my fills and we are checking on Monday to see if there is a leak in the band. It started very slowly and the really hit after the last fill. I have a 4 cc band and have a total of 1.6 cc in fill. Hopefully this is just some crazy with me and I am losing Fluid as I hear can happen. The great part is that I have maintained the weight loss. Looking forward to any advice that anyone has and chatting with you. Best, Debbie banded 2/20/07 218/176/115 pre-op/right now/goal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonHoll1 0 Posted October 11, 2007 Hi Debbie!! Welcome to the board. Hope you do not have a leak. Seems like a lot of people do tho. I wonder what causes all of them. Donna Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mystalia 0 Posted October 11, 2007 Hi Donna - Thanks for the welcome! From checking out other boards, it seems to be common to have fills "disappear". There are methods to use a thicker saline, so I will see what the doctor recommends on Monday. Best, Debbie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
