Revision Takes Place Today!

I really did not think that getting this revision would take so long but like always the insurance holds things up!

 

In just an hour I will be leaving to go to Cedars again but this time it is just a very simple revision surgery. I will only be there for a couple of hours and then I will be back to home. Dr. Feiz said that he would make sure that my band was filled to the same place as it would have been after my third fill. I am really looking forward to the restriction. I have not had any for the last few weeks. I have made sure that I did not over eat but I have gained 3 pounds because I was able to eat larger amounts but that is okay, it will all come off in the next day or too cuz I am back to liquids and mushies!

 

I will write more later today or tomorrow about the revision.

 

Here I Gooooooooo! Back to restricted bandland!

What is a revision? getting the paid replaced or something? Why did you have to get a revision? Hope everything works out.

Hi There, A revision is when there is a problem with the saline not tightening the band when injected. It can happen but is not real common. In my case I had to have the port replaced, the port is the part where the saline is injected. Hope this answers your questions. Thanks, Cheryl
