So I was banded in 2007. Was hard to find sweet spot. Finally did. Then got too tight got reflux. Got unfill and was never the same. Now I have my daughter (3mo) and amazing but i've gained every pound back. Fills don't work. I think my pouch is too big up top. I don't want to go under the knife now that I have a little one and I cannot forsee myself doing a sleeve (for fear that I want another baby ad don't know that I would get enough nutrition. Plus I cannot afford to be out of recovery time.

Has anyone got band repositioned? Did it work? What was it like? How was recovery?

Wy wouldnt you use the tools you have?

The first thing I would do is to decide if I want to lose the weight. If the answer is yes... Call your surgeon and make an appointment. You lost it once so something was going right. Talk to him frankly and honestly. Get back on track and get a fill and let the band work for you

Yes I go in tomorrow morning. Just want a game plan in mind. I dont know what to do. Been off wagon for years since they said pouch too big

Are you saying you had a slip? Is that why your pouch is too large? If so, you NEED to get that fixed. The recovery would be similar to your original banding surgery from what I understand.

I think I stretched my pouch

As the other ladies stated, your doctor will be the one to tell you whether you stretched your pouch or have a slip. I would follow his advice.

I would discuss it with the dr... Ask him if it slipped...and if so then you can get it fixed. Or maybe if it hasn't just a fill will do. Good luck I am sure you will feel better when you have some answers.

Let us know how your apt goes.

Got a fill praying it works!!!

Try sticking with a reduced calorie level as well.... because as you know sometimes it takes a few fills to get to the green zone.

Congrats for getting back on the bandwagon!
