    What r signs of Slippage

    I had the exact same thing happen to me just recently. I got my last fill 5 wks ago I was pretty tight but i was able to manage it. Then one night I had the same thing happen to me. I dealt with it for several days and I thought i either had a slippage or some kind of erosion. I went to the doctor we did a barium swallow and i was just to tight. They took out 3cc. I feel much better now. So maybe are just a little to tight. I wish you the best.

    Advice on size of 2nd fill

    Hi Bill It Nancy from Sealy. I have been struggling this week with my fill as well. I have a 4cc band I had my second fill six weeks ago. I was very tight for the last few weeks. Tight but managlable until this past week. I for some reason felt like i was choking for some reason I started having reflux and everything I was eating or drinking was burning. So on Wed. I had to go to Surg. Center and have 3cc taken out to relieve some of the discomfort. It is really hard to find the right fill. I have been struggling with this for several months. I to have to pay 150.00 a pop for fill or unfill. My fills seem to kick in weeks later. Its crazy. I am just really tired right now. I am just really down about it. I hope you can find a fill that works for you. Talk to you soon. PS I am still waiting on a answer from Lifetime about holding the meetings there. The young lady that is responsible is out this week. I would really like to get a support group started asas. Good Luck Nancy
  6. Cuddos i feel the same way. I was banded in March of 06. I never thought i would have a personal trainer or gym bag or eaven do a kick boxing class. I was the biggest slug. But do i feel so much better. I love every minute (except the treadmill) i hate the it. But I am working on that everyday i want to hit with a bat. ( im sorry did i type that)hehe In all honesty its great. I feel better that is what I am truly happy about.

It hurt again this morning when i was getting ready for work. Should i be concerned or just my body starting to get use to solid foods again. Anything i can do to prevent this. Thanks for any help...:faint: It makes me feel weak.... NCottrell
  12. Hi I was banded by Dr.Spiegel on Wed March 22 and he did great. I cant say enough. I feel like i was treated very professionaly yet very personal. I was very pleased. And Friday post op was my most difficult day. My husband and I called him Friday eve. he immediatly called me back and was very reassuring. Hope it works out for you...
