{{/* BP structured-data corrections, 2026-08-04. buildMetaTags() runs in Dispatcher\Front before the head renders, and includeJS serialises Output::i()->jsonLd at the end of body, so mutating the array here is what actually ships.

  1. I have Blue Cross/Blue Shield of Illinois and had all of the symptoms that you do and I didn't have a problem after I met all of their conditions. You shouldn't have a problem with them. From Jones 1100.
  2. Thanks to crzytchr for the words of encouragement. When the doctor did my fill to a 2, he told me he thought it was too tight but I convinced him to leave it because I wanted the restriction and was not getting it at a 1. So you're probably right and this is what I was thinking that I may need to have .5 cc taken out. I'll call my doctor for an appointment.
  3. Hi, This is my first time on this site. I had my lapband surgery on 9/12/08. I had my first fill in December of 2008 due to some complication in healing of my incision. At that I was only filled to a 1. In January 2009, I was filled to a 2 and that is where I am now. I have lost 27 lbs to date. I have been feeling a little bit of frustration because I haven't lost more weight and I have also been experiencing the phlegm sometimes after the first bite or two of food. This kind of contributes to my indulging in some "junk" foods which go down easier. I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this and is there anything that can be done about it. HELP!!!:tongue_smilie:
