  1. Did your tightness subside? This sounds so much like my problem right now!!! I was excited to read someone else had it. I am 2 yrs post op. I have NO fluid in my band for the last 4 months but have really bad restriction. How long did it take to get better? I am on 6 days now. Its getting old. was there any way to make the swelling go down faster?
  2. Im 25 months out. I had been having some pains and i was told it could be some scar tissue. Im sure there are several things, but mine seemed to be scar tissue being moved.
  3. This is gross but i wish someone would have told me that "throwing up" meant a big pile of mucus goo.
  4. I am 2 yr. post op. My band has been great. I have lost almost 100 lbs from my highest weight. About 4 months ago I was having to much restriction in my band and had ALL the fluid removed. It has been great for the last couple months but about a week ago it got REALLY tight again. The problem is I have no fluid to remove to relieve it! Any one else have this problem? How did you fix it? Thanks so much for your help
