Having to have a 2nd surgery!?!?!?!?!?!



Recommended Posts

I went for 2nd fill yesterday and as I previously stated I had a kink in my tubing (which was found at the first band fill):biggrin:. But the first fill went in once she stood me up. Well yesterday that didnt happen and now I have to have a small surgery to have the excess tubing cut down so it won't kink on me anymore. Just wondering if anyone else has had this issue before?

It's really bad luck that you have had these problems. The fact that the tube was too long (to such an extent that it kinked), suggests to me that your surgeon has made an error of judgement in the intial surgery. In any event this problem has occured, although I think it is pretty unusual.

Hang in there; it will all come right eventually.

Just remember it has taken a number of years for you to have reached the weight you are; when your band is fixed you should lose weight quickly, certainly, alot quicker than when it was put on!
