  1. defective band

    :sad_smile:Hi my name is Gabby, I was banded on Nov 1, 07 by Dr. Nazarian in Ca. I was loosing about 7-9 lbs per month for the first three months. After February 08 I would get filled and loose complete restriction after 2 weeks. I finally realized that there could be a leak somewhere. I was supposed to have a flouroscopy done with contrast to see where the leak was, but ended up getting a 5cc fill that left me unable to eat or drink. I feel like crap and the worst part of this is that I cant get saline out because the doctor is able to inject, but unable to draw saline back. Has anyone been through this and if you have, What do I do?
