Hello, I had my first fill today. It was done with fluro and hurt so bad. They had a hard time getting into the port - so they had to get the "expert" who got it in first try. I was banded on 12/22/08 started at 275lbs and as of today weigh 252lbs. I got a 2.4cc fill in a 10cc band. I don't want to go through that again, but know I will have too, in order to continue to lose weight over time. Just needed to share. Thanks, Laura Lynn

I am sorry you had a painful experience. Maybe next time you can request the "expert" before anyone else touches you.:wink2:
