any plication banders getting a fill lately?

how long after surgery was your first one?

how far in between months have you gone between fills if you did?

maybe coming up to my 1st fill and getting nervous. mainly because of the unknown.

sure i can read about it, but until you do, its just a (guess)

First fill under fluoroscopy at 2 months. Band to 4.0 cc

@ 3 months, additional fill to 4.5 cc (Big trouble, could not eat even liquids hurt

@ 3 months + 1 week, unfill to 4.25 cc (Turns out previous fill was to 5.0 CC (OOPS)

@ 7 months fill to 4.5 cc, no problems.

Currently at 9 months post surgery, have a checkup later this month, but not expecting any fill at that time. I am nearing goal weight.

Are you in NC Carolinagirl? I am!

i am my dear

in raleigh, where are you??

thanks for the info on the fills

does the fluro help measure how much they put in?

I am in Durham. The fluro just helps them locate the band and then I drank a tiny bit of barium and they watched it go through the band. It has been quite a ride!
