I had originally lost to 111 lbs. two years ago, but have slowly regained 20 lbs. I am so unhappy with myself! I am going to get a fill and try to relose the weight I have gained. Any support or ideas will be greatly appreciated. Has this happened to anyone else?

Since Dec. 2006. So, about two and half years.

Thanks for the great post. You sound very knowledgeable about the fill process. At first I thought you were probably a surgeon, but later read you are a patient. I am 2 and a half years post op and have been having trouble getting my fills to a desirable spot. It was helpful to hear that a smaller adjustment may be what I need. Thanks so much for your input.

I am having reflux with any band tightening. I am wondering if anyone knows if I definitely should have my band checked under fluoro or with EGD? My doctor has never mentioned it and I am kind of concerned. Thanks for any help.

I am having trouble with reflux and a little weight gain (15 lbs. in a little over a year) If I have my band tightened, I have terrible reflux. I have never ONCE had my band evaluated under fluoro. Do any of you think I should insist on it? My doctor acts like it is no big deal, so I don't want to worry unnecessarily. Also, mainly, don't want to gain the weight back.
