      jodie1961

      seems like they would have known that before scheduling you. Sometimes it just doesn't make sense. Good luck tomorrow.

  12. due to a slip I was unfilled but they are filling me again on wed does anyone know how much they normally start you back on in cc I am a self pay and really want to start back at a 5cc

    1. 2muchfun

      2muchfun

      One would think they'd fill under fluoro this time around just to make sure the fill is right and the band is where it should be? Placement of the band might dictate a different fill level?

    2. Sojourner

      Sojourner

      When my band was totally unfilled for a different reason, not as serious as a slip, my surgeon was much more conservative with the rate of refilling the band. I guess factors include the size of your band, and how much it was filled prior to the slip. I tend to be conservative with fills. Everyone is different. Ask your surgeon what they feel is appropriate for your unique situation. Best wishes!

    3. rayanne

      rayanne

      I have a 14 cc bag and I had it filled to 9.5 which honestly was to much I would like to start at 6 but I really doubt they will do that

  13. small setback had to get a complete unfill due to it lapband slipped but going to just comtinue to eat the sme and then i can get a refill in a week or to when it heals

      plication is where they fold half your stomach over and stitch it. it's like a sleeve without any cutting of the stomach. it's still in the experimental stage but a lot of lapbanders have it done with their bands.

    3. rayanne

      rayanne

      thanks I see

    4. mrsto

      mrsto

      To add to what terry said, they don't actually fold the stomach over. They fold the greater curvature inward on itself, and put two rows of non-disolving stitches.....making the capacity of shape in and around the size of the sleeve. Then they place the band. At times I've tried to eat right through band signals, the plication gives me a huge kick in the butt.

  14. OK all is well he got his surgery done now back to getting on track

  15. so under alot of stress my son is getting surgery and my old habit of eating when i am stressed has been nixed so WTF do I do now...I will figure it out just feel lost like I lost a best friend....or a friendenemy...

      Try to not get too far away from your routine and protein. Keep O K foods around, so that you don't grab the wrong stuff. Even hospital vending machines and dining rooms don't carry much that we can eat, so just be prepared ahead of time. I hope that your son recovers well.
