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
