5th Fill...to tight or tough it out??
I think you are too tight but you should talk to Dr. I had this happen 2 weeks ago - was miserable for a week then got 0.2cc removed. I have lost 4 pounds since.

Cincinnati Lap Band Surgeons?
I'm from north of Dayton and did all my research on Dr.s in this area. They all seemed fine but were 20-25K. So I found CWLC with a google search and they were 16K - i thought wow what a bargain! I attended a seminar and got a very good feeling from Dr.Mobley & his wife Tammy - both have the band and were very willing to stay after and discuss one on one. About 2 weeks after my surgery I ran across Dr. Curry's ad on this website. He had just dropped his price to $13K. I think both are very very good. My wife is also getting the band next month but is going with Dr.Curry primarily because of costs. The differences i think have to do with the size of practice and available resources. Dr. Curry is very well staffed. They have 2 dieticians, an exercise facility for patients and he does the first adjustment with a under floro. To me they seem top notch. CWLC is also great. They are smaller so if i need to change a fill appt. they always can get me in asap. The monthly support group is great and active. I don't think there is a wrong choice here. I would start by attending the free seminar for both. Hope this helps & good luck!

Vegetarian-any good ideas for sources of protein?
Lentils are also a great source of protein.

To stay or not to stay...
My surgery was at 7:30 am and I was on my home at 10:00 am. I didn't have any pain just a sight soreness in certain positions. Everybody's experience is different.

Strange sensation - anyone else?
Me too - but between my right shoulder blade and spine. It's s tingling sensation that comes and goes. I'm only 2 months post-op but would say this sensation is getting less frequent - not everyday now. Did your Dr. give you any specific info on the cause?
