Well last month I had a fill of 1cc put in totaling 5cc in my 14cc band . Within 2hrs of receiving that fill I could drink NOTHING I mean nothing not even water. So I returned 2days later and he took that 1cc back out . I just went in today and he put that 1cc back in again. So far so good.

How many times we have to go through this? I had banded 2009 and since then i am in constant every 3 or 4 months go for fill or unfill? I am about to give up. I fill 1 cc i get stuck, remove it i can eat easily and keep on gaining weight. Is it normal? Anyone else goes through this up and down? Sometimes i feel shame going back for fill or unfill. Please advise me. I have gained 20lb back. And it is making me depress. Pls help if you can??

Twice in 2 yrs

It is the same with me. I've had 1 successful fill since 2010.I have this nagging feeling My Dr. is over filling me. Just to get more money from me. I've gained 40 pounds minus $800.00.

I have the same issue, i have gained 20 lb and excersicing everyday still no luck. I am tired of filling and unfilling. I dont think my Dr. Doing it for money i guess this is how band works on certain people. I have no idea what to do? If you found answer pls let me know. Don't give up

I was at 7.5 in my 10cc band then went up to 9.5 cc and very tight. I could not eat more than 10 bites and was throwing up and slime all the time. I had a 2.5 cc unfill and now cannot feel restriction. I changed doctors and gain 10 lbs this year 2014. I am not happy and not in my green zone and hungry all the time. Once you feel that spot of not being hungry and not throwing up your THERE~
