What is the magic fill for your 10mL band?



Recommended Posts

I recently had my 4mL band replaced witha 10mL band in April 2009, because it wsa leaking, and currently have a 7mL fill. When I had the 4mL band, I had a 3.65 fill, and was happy. I wonder if it's been filled too fast, too much...Initially when it was placed, the doctor gave me a 4mL fill, and since then I have had two fills, a 2mL fill teh first time & a 1mL fill yesterday. I can drink liquids, but I think all of these fills have caused a little swelling. I am just curious what the sweet spot is for others that have a 10mL band. If it's around 7 or higher I'm going to leave it as is for teh weekend & see if it feels better.
