i just got a swedish band , first it leeked, then we fixed. i dont feel enough restriction. i think maybe it was just not ment to be. i got a fill a couple of days ago. for a day and a half i felt a restriction. i loved it. i got this band 2 months ago. i still have not lost. i know its a tool, but i need a little help right now. my Dr. is in Mexico, i cant keep running back and forth. my friend did this with no problems. what if its still leeking?

Where was it leeking? the band, port? how did they fix it? did you go back to Mexico to get it fixed? Do you know exactly which band you have?

If you have a leak, then you get it fixed and get on your way. I know that sounds over simplified, but that's the reality of it. We all hit bumps in the road. Some are large bumps, others are small bumps.

Did they do a fluoro to check for a leak? Is there a band doc in your area who might be willing to do a fluoroscopy for you?

Also, keep in mind that it's VERY common for restriction to vary. You might wake up in a week to find that you're quite restricted.

Keep your chin up and know that we're rooting for you!
