So How Much Does It Cost To Get The Slipped Band Fixed If Your Self Paying

2/6/07 up ANOTHER FRIGEN PD I CANT WAIT FOR A FILL IN 12 DAYS.. THAT DAM DR HAD BETTER TELL ME GOOD NEWS CAUSE I DONTWANT TO HEAR ANYTHING BUT THE WORDS FILLLLLLLLLL COMING FROM HER MOUTH. I AM VERY PISSSSED RIGHT NOW

WEll up ANOTHER DAM POUND... 125 TODAY T MINUS 12 DAYS FOR A FILL. I HOPE I GET A FILL VICE GOING THRU SOMETHING ELSE I NEED SOME RESTRICTION ..

This is exactly what I was doing. now I need to stay unfilled for another 2 wks then go back to TJ and see if I am back to normal or not. IF NOT then I dont know the Dr. is going to do:help: Diane I believe pouch dilation is something that occurs over a period of time. I have had this twice (both very recently) and it occurred when I was over 2 years out from being banded and had been 'cheating' regularly for at least a year. Cheating as in drinking with my food to eat more, eating too fast and consuming large amounts of liquid at one time very quickly. Also, my band was far too tight which contributed greatly to this problem. After a few complications and a minor surgery (with my port - NOT related to the dilation issue), it scared me enough to go back to following the rules. The alternative was a slippage which would have been devastating both financially and emotionally for me. The major symptom I had from my dilation was being able to eat noticeably more, and constant severe reflux. It certainly pays early on to form good habits and stick to them or you may suffer severe consequences down the road. I took my band for granted and thought I could push it and push it and not look after it and I got a big warning. Hope this info helps you and good luck on your journey Suzie

But overall I have been eating soft foods so it will shrink back down.. I just hope I dont put on to many more pounds.. thanks all for the good inputs
