Thanks for your response HeatherO!

Congrats Ladies! I'm expecting also i'm due around 08/01/08. Is it true your have to get unfilled when your pregnant? I am eating more than usual and after eating i often experience pain around my port area and/or my right side/back. Anyone heard of this?

I'm In For The 4th Of July Challange! I Need Some Motivation After Only Losing 28 Lbs. So Far.....how Much Are We Going For?

Alexandra, that sounds really horrible. I'm glad everything is getting better dor you. I'll keep you posted on what Dr. Abkin says tomorrow.

Alexandra, I'm So Glad To Hear All Is Well. What Were Your Symptoms? I Have To See Dr. Abkin Monday Because I Think I May Have Slippage Also But He Said I Would Vomit All Day.

I Have Port Pain 24/7. It's To The Point That I Have To Take Pain Killers. So, I Have An Appointment Monday, I'll Let You Guys Know What The Results Are.

Hey Everyone! I Know It's Been Awhile..... I Miss You Guys But I've Been Really Aggravated With This Band! I've Been Feeling Very Uncomfortable Lately.... Has Anyone Ever Had Stomach Pains And Port Pains???? My Doctor Wants Me To Go To The Er For A Barium Swallow But I Hate Hospitals. He Said He Doubts If It's Slippage Because I Would Be Vomitting All Over But I Can Eat Anything I Want And He Said I Need A Fill.

Thanks Ladies For The Quick Response Because I'm At Work Really Stressed About How Much I Can Eat. But My First Fill Is Feb. 8th. How Much Do You Think I Should Start Off With? Any Suggestions?

Hello To All My October Bandsters! It Has Been Awhile Since I've Posted Anything But I Always Check-in. I Have Been Really Depressed With This Band Lately. I Am Eating Way Too Much....... Last Night I Ate 3 Slices Of Pizza With Everything On It And I Feel Like Crap. I Told My Doctor I Can Eat Like I Never Had Surgery And He Said I Just Need A Fill. I Have A 10cc Band But Has Anyone Heard Of Eating That Much With The Band??? I'm Confused Because I Think I Have Slippage.

Thank you Telly for the information. You really inspire me! I love your journal, keep up the good work!

First I would like to say, WELCOME TO LBT! As far as the heat is concerned I sometimes get the same thing and my Dr. said I was fine. Yes, I sleep on my stomach but I can't stay in the same position for long and I don't know if it's a mental thing with the port area or what but I just can't! We're a day apart by the way. :confused: You're doing really great so far, keep up the good work.

Telly, Can you give me the information on the surgeon who did your tt? You really great by the way!
