Has anyone had success after a complete unfill...fill...slip and another complete unfill?
to make a long story short...
I was pregnant and at about 7.5 months I was unable to eat or drink anything and in terrible pain so got a complete unfill. 1.5 months after my baby was born started getting filled again which was in August. So I've gone back every few weeks for another fill...then 2 weeks ago they sent me for a barium swallow to make sure everything was looking ok...nope! my band slipped...so back to being complete unfilled. I wasn't sick or anything so i had no idea...basically I was always starving and feeling like I needed to eat all the time so i was frustrated and wanted a huge fill.
I had my surgery almost 4 years ago...I lost a total of about 110 lbs...gained about 20 being pregnant and then when I was unfilled at 7.5 months gained 25 over night...ugh! now i'm up another 20...so yeah I've gained 65 back =(
I go back in Wednesday to see if the band went back to normal and see what the next step is.
I never had any sort of issue until my pregnancy and ever since that first unfill I've yet to "feel" my band...
