  1. Not enough restriction again.

    Hi. What is omnipaque? The Dr's fill us up with saline.. so saline disappears from the band? Did I read that correctly?

    I was banded on 07-02. I am down 55 lbs. I just made a follow up appt with my DR for tomorrow. I too feel like I don't have enough restriction. I was filled again on 11-27. I have 1 1/2 cc's and my Dr. has a heck of a time. 8 pokes and 45 minutes later... i was filled. I can't do bread, rice or chicken but can eat more than the 4 oz they claim i should be at.. i know i was a bottomless pit before but feel like it has not been resolved yet... i am self pay so i have to dish this all out on my own and feel your frustrations...:think
