I did have to have an unfill due to the fact that they partially filled my band when they put it in. I am "all better now" and have had two fills since. Thanks for responding!

I take several meds daily and had that problem then the nurse told me to take my meds with something thicker than water. I now take my meds with low fat chocolate milk (don't like the white stuff) then follow it up a few minutes later with water to make sure it went down. I no longer have any problems. Hope this helps.

I was banded Mar. 29, 2012 and I am unable to drink all the protein shakes I am supposed to consume, or to get my daily pills down. I have tremendous amounts of gas and indegestion. Could I need to get some of the saline taken out of my band?

Hi December Bandsters, I am scheduled for surgery on December 1st and have been doing the 6 month pre-diet required by my Cigna Insurance Company and now that I am approved I am so nervous. I will be so glad when the surgery is over. I haven't told many people either because of the instant negative feedback. My husband and immediate family are very supportive. I can't wait to start my new life. I've been fat since the first grade. Thank you all for your positive comments.
