When you go to get a unfill for being too tight

How much don they usually take out?

I haven't needed an unfill yet, but I think if you tell them exactly how you feel and what you can eat they should know the amount to take out. Good luck!

It depends on the issue you are having. It can be all, 1 cc, etc. Again, it depends.

They told me if I have a prob they will take part of the fill they just entered. I was curious. No big problems thank god just too tight to eat solids. No vomiting everything goes down and stays just uncomfortable

It depends on many factors, not least of which is your dr's policies. Expect to be asked about how much you can eat, whether you can keep drinks down, how long since your last fill, how you felt before that fill, how much that fill was.

I have had 1cc put in, was too tight, then had half of that removed (and she could hear my saliva gurgling through the band as she withdrew it too).

That was more than enough to have removed. I am going back today to have 0.25cc replaced.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
