Fill amount Question..Confused!!

Hi All.

I had my 2nd fill today & orginally I had 5 ml in my 10 ml band. My consultant told me he takes out the fill first &

checks the amount then adds more. But in my case he told me he could only manage to take out 4ml & explained this as sometimes the band is 'crinkled like a deflated paddling pool' & some of the liquid gets stuck in the ridges & some amount

stays in the band'.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I now have 5.5 ml (or is it 6.5ml) in my 10 ml band.

I am a bit concerned & confused about all of this - anybody

out there had this experience & could put my mind at rest?

Thanks in Advance
