  1. What and how much documentation did you provide?
  2. I am 4 years post-op and want to get a fill. I have lost about 85lbs and need to lose about another 50. Just wanted to know if any has had a fill this far out?

  4. Hello Everybody, I have been gone a Loooooong time. I do miss you guys, I am just bad at responding. I have lost 62lb since being banded ( I did not realize that until just now) and I had a fill last Thursday that finally gave me restriction. I was beginning to think I would never get it. I am starting to learn what I can and can't eat. Before last Thursday I could eat what ever I wanted. Now things are getting stuck even when I chew chew chew and chew (except the things I shouldn't ie. chips or cookies). I am also having problems sleeping on my stomach. I wake up coughing bably, so I have to sleep on my back. Has anyone had this problem and will it go away? I hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!
