I'm almost at the two year mark of getting my band (Nov. 2008)! I still have a ways to go and feel that I've hit a plateau. (Lost 60 lbs., Goal weight is 25 more). I haven't had a fill since July 2010 because I'm too nervous to go back! I had a horrible experience after my last. It was a typical fill as it always has been but it didn't feel that way. About 30 mins after I left the dr's office I started feeling pain in my mid-back. Like tight, sharp pains. I gave it some time because I thought it would disappear. I was wrong! The pain spread into my chest and up into my neck and jaw. My dad being a doctor told me it's called radiating pain. Because my band was too tight from the fill, the pain was radiating from my stomach all throughout my body. Needless to say, I couldn't eat a thing... barely even Water. I had to wait to go back into the dr's office the next day. They unfilled me and the pain was instantly gone. Since then, I've been afraid to go back for another. I was never given a direct explanation of what to do or why it happened. My assumption is that I need to lose more weight on my own before the band can have anymore cc's. I'm at 8cc's in a 10cc band so I have to assume that it won't do it's job unless I do mine. Has this happened to anyone else? Should I be scared to go back for another?
