Going to the Dr. tomorrow for a slight un-fill

[54Shirley 105]

I am going to see my Dr. tomorrow, to take a little bit out, I think I'm to tight !

I keep Bubbling, and spitting up Flem. Sinus is also plugging me up I think !

Anyway,,, Whatever it is,,, I think a slight un-fill will correct the problem.

Because I have no appetite, and can barely swallow saliva, so,, I will do what I

think is right...

i also went through that. I got my 4th fill in june. went a full month vomiting and fighting to comsume 500 calories a day. It's dangerous to be too tight and not get an unfill. You can slip. i know it sucks... now, since i got my unfill ( a full cc) 3 weeks ago, i feel i can eat the whole world. i dont get full and i could down 2 burgers if i wanted to. Hitting that sweet spot takes time! im going back thursday for a lil more. hopefully this will be the spot good luck with your journey and remeber we are all here for support! xoxo

They took out 3/4 of a cc, and what a relief. I told her last time ONLY.1CC to go in. She put in .1 and a quarter. That was to much, and she new she messed up.

So it's a step back for a little while, then I'll go back again for a slight tweaking "IF NEEDED."

Yoli76: you should call your Dr. and go in. Throwing up can cause slippage. Not to mention I know how you feel, and it's not very well ! ! !

So do yourself a favor, make that call, and don't suffer...

I dropped 4lbs. that was the good part.

I only have a 4cc Band. I'm sure yours is bigger.

You can always have it done under Fluoroscope, and they

can take you to your fill line.

It's that easy.

But first you have to see if your Doctor wants to do it that way,

or will he have you keep coming in for the fill after fill process.

That's up to him ! But just so you know, there is another method.

Fluoroscopy is painless, and it's like a big x ray machine, that can

be used for the band.

They see your band, and so do you, then they start the fill process,

and take it to your fill line. Down the road you might need a little fill,

but basically that's it.

I know I prefer it.
