  1. Looking for some help. Got a fill approximately 2 weeks ago on 1-17. Last friday i began to get some back pain that radiated to my left ribs, above my port. I do not have my gallbladder. I know there is a possibility of it being cramps or gas because it does come and go but i am also worried something could be wrong with my band. I have been able to eat normal size lap band servings. Could my port be moving due to weight loss? Any other ideas? Thanks ahead of time!
  2. I usually only read the threads for help but i am really struggling. I had my band in april 2012 and have since lost a little over thirty pounds, i have had 2 fills and have about six cc's in my band. Lately, I am always hungry and I am eating everything without problems and without feeling full. My eating is not out of control however I do not think I should be able to eat a bowl of special k and still feel hungry. I have been exercising alot but I do not feel i should be able to eat this much/be this hungry. Do i need a fill? Any advice would be helpful!
