Now that it's been determined to only fill under "fluoroscopy" to be safe from leaks, what is price difference, anyone know?

I'm 1 wk post op band and I'm hungry, don't feel any fullness and can only have one protein shake a day/that gives PRO 50gms; what else is there to help fill up? Ideas?

I just had a banding done 3/26, ever since surgery I've had severe, sharp pains in my left shoulder, I have been so puzzled and now can relate the pain to everytime I try to consume any liquids- temp doesn't matter either- I almost went to hosp last night the pain was so bad...I didn't have this pain before banding, what could it be? I sure hope this doesn't last?
