The band i haven't had fluid for about 1yer. everthing gets stuck fluid in or fluid out Whe i first had my band in i never had any trouble i lost 150 lbs then the band got to tight and i have been going down hill ever since. They even went back in and fixied a hernia thinking that was the problem for along time all i could drink would be protien drinks and salads That is what i have been doing everyday of my life. Doctors says nothing is wrong with the band i have had a few tests run nothing has happened:confused:
