Am I alone

[tonyiabraswell 0]

:confused:I got my band in August of last year. I have been on steroids since about three weeks ago. I have actually gained about 30lbs since I first got my band and just finally lost 10lbs this past month. It doesn't matter if I drink or eat it feels like everything gets stuck in my chest. This starting to stress me what do I do now?

First off, hello and welcome to LBT.

You are not alone, many people have experienced similiar problems. For some people, it takes several cc's for their bands to give them any restriction, and for others, just the tiniest amount can make a huge difference. Have you talked to your doctor about the problems you are having? Has he done a fill under flouroscopy? If not, perhaps it is time to do one that way. It will help check the placement of your band, and he will better be able to give you an appropriate fill by seeing how Fluid is flowing through your band.
