What type of fluid is your band filled with?

I do not have saline in my band. My Doctor put something else he said was thicker. He also asked me if if allergic to shellfish. Does anyone know what this Fluid is?

Thanks

Cheri

    Thicker? I'd say maybe siclicone, but the allergy to shellfish would indicate iodine but that may have been asked because they apply a topical iodine to cleanse/steralize the skin. That is my only thought. Next time just ask him :cool:
