Recommended Posts

I realize band sizes vary, but please humor me. How many cc's were put in at you first fill and what was you level of restriction? :confused2:

My first fill was 2 ccs. The doctor told me that he put the band in empty so I guess all I have now is 2 ccs. I don't have much restriction but I do get stuck more often than I did before the fill.

Hi, I have a 10 cc band and had my first fill Friday. The Dr. put in 3 cc's. Feels like I need a little more. He said most people end up with 5 to 7 cc's.

I have a 10cc band. Here is my band fill history:

surgery: 3ccs (no restriction)

4 weeks post op: +2ccs (no restriction)

5 weeks post op: +0.5ccs (no restriction)

5.5 weeks post op: +0.5ccs (no restriction)

6 weeks post op: +0.75cc's (restriction)!!!!

So now I'm at 6.75 cc's and at restriction which is a wonderful thing!
