Thanks I think maybe i have a 4 cc band because in 2004 i had gastric bypass. I have not lost as much weight that i wanted too. So i decided to get the lapband to help take the extra few pounds off. Thanks
The doctor that preformed my surgery said that the name of my lapband is an Allergen 4cc band. I am thinking that the band is Allergen, and that I can only be filled up to 4cc's ? Am I correct ? Can someone help clerify this for me before Monday, if not I will ask him on Monday. Thanks
I wish that I had that problem. I had my surgery on June 20th 2012 I have lost 5lbs. Congragulations on your weight loss! hopefully I will be posting the same after my first fill. At least some weight loss?
Thank you so much for asking that question! I had my surgery on June 20th 2012. I like you dont feel any restriction. I was feeling like a faliure as well. I paid for my surgery,and it was not easy to save all that money. I will have to pay for each fill that I recieve. I will get my first fill on July 24th 2012. I am hoping that I see some weight loss very soon. Thanks
Hello, today is the 5th day after my surgery, other than the surgicial wounds , how do you know that the band is working? When dose the swelling go, and when can you expect to see changes on the scale?
