i am going for my 6th fill on sept 2nd,how do i know if the doctor is even getting the saline in??i know thats a question for him but does anyone else wonder that???

How much is your doc putting in each time? Some docs are aggressive, some are conservative. Welcome to bandster hell!

if the saline wasnt going into the port it would be going into your subQ tissue and you would know it. Im pretty sure he is getting the fluid in

thanks for the advice

I was wondering the same, after my first fill of 3cc, I didn't feel much different. ( i thought maybe he missed) Might be getting alittle fuller faster, but that is about it. I have yet to experience any sickness , "stuck feeling" or restriction. I dont have to take small bites either. The food I eat is soft for the most part, but I thought it was going to be alot different not complaining, trust me. But I do wish the weight loss was faster. I lost 20 pounds since the July 19 so I can' t really complain. Still learning thats for sure, its amazing how different the band is for each of us. I'm so greatful my band and I are friends.
