  1. I have been banded for 5 years. Countless numbers of fills and unfills. Most recently (earlier this year) I had to have the fluid removed because my pouch was swollen. After testing and everything was better, the Dr refilled 3cc and I fill like I have no restriction. I have an appt on Tuesday and I'm praying for a refill. I have gained 15 lbs this year alone and I am sad and desperate. I still continued my exercise routine but I'm hungry more often than not. Has anyone else had issues like this? Were you able to get back on track? I feel helpless most of the time but I want my life back!
  2. I have never been numbed either!! & I have been banded for 5yrs...fills & unfills!
  3. I have never experienced anything like this. I suggest you call your dr. immediately. Don't take your health for granted. Feel better!
