Thanks for your post Wendell. I pasted it into word and printed it out because it is the best explanation of the process I have read as yet. I am going to give my dr. a copy of it to give to his patients. Actually, I hope he reads it himself, as I am sure I am going to need another fill soon. Although I have only lost 30 lbs since December, my stomach area has lost several inches. He says he can find the port much more easily now, however, he believes that I shouldn't need another fill for 3 more months. I was his first lap band patient and I wouldn't trade my tool for all the tea in China. Thanks for the post.
ewalk got a reaction from Wgbem in How the Lap-Band actually works, fills and refills
