Lap-Band AP - Large Band 14cc



Recommended Posts

Anyone else get this one?

My doc says it is one of the best and will hold up to 14 ml/cc of saline.

I guess that means I can get fills for years down the road.

I have this band and I have 5cc in the band. My next appointment is May 5th and right now I have what I consider good restriction so hopefully I will not need another fill at that visit.

My surgeon likes the AP bands.

I have a 14cc band with 6.5cc as of today. I do not have any restriction right now. I've only had one fill, so i am hoping to get some restriction on my next fill.

I have a 14cc with 7cc in it. I have had one fill, 5ccs. I dont really feel "restricted", but I am doing well with the weight loss so I have decided to leave it alone until I need more help.

Thats the band I have. I think my doc said my band started with 7cc's already in it, and with fills I've added an additional 3.5ccs.

I currently have decent restriction and have been losing weight great.

I was told it all depends on the size of your stomache when they go in. I was given the standard 10 CC band.

I also have a 14 cc band, surgery feb 09. I think I have about 8cc in there and I am down 110 pounds. I am too brain damaged to move my chain( I will have to ask my teenager). My weight loss is slow but steady. Peg:smile:

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
