No idea what to do!
why is it always the fault of the band? This could be anything and serious you need to see the doctor I know u said not insurance but we aren't doctors and cant tell you what to do. Do liquids for a few dsys while you set up and appointment with the doctors.

Explaining how lap band works...
when they put the band the opening to the stomach it creates a pouch right above it to cause the nerves ending to your brain that you are full. usally we fill our stomach up from the bottom and we can eat a lot before the nerves are touched and told the brain u have eaten. Now we are talking to the brain with the first bit that we already full which cause us to feel satisfied on a very small amount of food. At least that is my understanding. Often they have a picture of it our here,i am sure some will send it to you.

Trying to decide what to do ...
the band isn't for everyone. like everything else it takes work I would think that if you could have done this on your own you would have lost weight anyway. The band isn't preventing you from losing only you can do that and it cant mske you lose the weight only you can do that also. Maybe you should think about if you are ready and really want to loss right now. Its not always the right time emotionally to do something this big. No matter what system you choose it will take the same amount of work and change of eating habits...this is not easy and I am praying that you get some peace.

It makes sence that you would loss fat everywhere including around the banded area and a fill would bring you back to the restriction needed to contuine. I got confused with missy comment , it will be interesting to hear what everyone has been told.
