I had my first fill yesterday...very strange sensation but virtually painless. My doctor told me that there was no Fluid in my band but that he normally does have a little in at the time of surgery. Then he says he's not sure why there was none. This made me think...is it possible that there was fluid and it leaked out? Or is it just not sure why he didn't put any in in my case. Either way not good.

I was told the same thing by another doctor ho did my fill. My doctor stated that my band was left open because of the healing that needed to be done.. But i still dont feel that much of a restriction. i have another appt in a week to see if fluids are still in my band. also i was told that it may take a couple of fills to get the right restriction.

I'm trying it out at 2cc's for now. But he did schedule me for next week to see how it worked out. If it's still not enough he will give me another fill.
