lindar172 1 Posted February 15, 2009 I got my second fill on February 3rd and it has been working very well. Why are you scared? Did you have problems after the first fill? This one went great for me and I am eating much less than I did before the fill. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

kerimezz77 0 Posted February 15, 2009 i honestly don't know I put my health and care in his hands, and when he said 3ccs I was a bit shocked. Do I call tuesday and talk to him about how much? I am very concerned Keri Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mljalways 1 Posted February 18, 2009 Been thinking of you. How are you feeling?? I just went for my fourth fill and was to surprised to hear him say another 1.5cc but my weight loss has been so slow. I hope this works!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MTBiker 1 Posted March 11, 2009 I just had my fourth fill today. I have a 10cc band, and am now at 6.25cc. I think my dr takes this whole thing too slowly, and sometimes I wish I had the slam dunk approach that Kerimezz77's doctor uses. My dr today said that most people hit a sweet spot in the 6-7cc range. I sure hope so, because I've been pretty flat line since recovering from surgery. I've got another 50lbs to go, and I need this band to start earning its keep! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kerimezz77 0 Posted April 20, 2009 I am doing good. I have my days where I PB but I am ok otherwise. I do have some discomfort in my upper left abdomen. I wonder if with me losing weight, and fat, things are moving around. I am in a 14/16 right now. I am down I think a reasonable amount of weight. I have an appt next month with my doctor for a follow up. I hope he might take a little out because I am a still concerned with having 9cc's already in my band. Hope you all are well.

Old Goat 0 Posted May 7, 2009 Hi Keri Sorry to here you are having problems with your last fill. From what you are saying I assume you have the Lap Band System and a 10cc Band? That is the Band that my Doctor used for me. I have just recently signed up on My LAP-BAND Journey and found out that what we call a 10cc Band is technical a 9.7/10cc with a Max fill of 14cc. So you are not as close to max fill as you think hope this helps you to not be so concerned. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
