Xray Fills in the UK?

[lil 0]

Sorry for hijacking your thread girls, just wondering if anyone knows where I could get xray fills in the UK? I was banded in Ireland but my provider went bust and we were left with no aftercare. I can get fills in Ireland but they're not xray and I have yet to reach my sweet spot. I'm banded over 2 years now and have still weight I need to lose

Thankyou

Speak to Dr Chris De Bruyne he is located in Belgium but well up to speed on all of this.

I have flown to Belgium on a return flight for under £30, he also does a clinic in UK but will give you advice anyway. He did my OP and is really good and very approachable.

Thanks a million for replying. Does he do xray fills in the UK or Belgium? As far as I know he doesn't do xray in Ireland

Thanks

If he hasnt seen u before, we will just take out all the Fluid into a syringe, tell him what band u had say 7cl and he will work out exactly what is inside your band and give you advice on whether you need a few cl more etc. You can even wait at the UK appointments and drink fluids and see if it goes down ok. They give u emergency overfill cards so if u feel ill a 2 days later or so when u start to eat, you can go get some out.

Xrays are adviced after a year but he will say that.

They are £90 in Manchester, Frederik does them.

I've had 2 with him, he is charming and knows what he's doing too.

EDIT: forgot to say the only place I know that does band adjusting by x-ray in the north west is the manchester x-ray.

Thanks very much for this - do you mind if I ask, I notice you have been banded for the second time - what problems did you have with the first band? I was banded in 2007 and am pretty happy with everything but do wonder from time to time how long these bands really do last?

Hope that answers your question.

It does and i'm so very sorry for you situation. I hope things go well for you this time around - i'm sure they will. I was banded in 2007, had a couple of fills and flucuate between 9 1/2 stone and 10 stone, i'm 5'6 so this is a respectable weight for me. If I go any lower my skin is obviously wrinkly and I don't want to go to the expense of further surgery to remove the skin.

Thank you for your kind words. I think this time its working.

I didnt lose anything until my 3rd fill though, and I think it was mainly because I gave up smoking. normally i would have put weight on.

needless to say I have started again, and have now started to lose. I know I'm silly, but I cant pay all that money out not to lose weight.

btw are you a girl or a guy? you're a great weight.

I am 5ft 7ins, and 20 years ago (after 4kids) weighed 10stone....dont now though...but hope to again soon.
