Getting restriction with 14cc band



Recommended Posts

I think I have a large 14cc band (my doctor doesn't remember) Great doc huh. Anyways, does anyone have this size band and at what point were they restricted. I have 6cc and feel no restriction yet.

I too found out at my 2 week post op (last Friday), I have a 14cc band too. I was told some Fluid was put in during surgery, which I could feel first week, but they dont know how much. When I go for my fill on the 31st, they will remove all Fluid, and replace so they know how much I will actually have. They said they will do this each time.

How much was your first fill? The full 6 cc?

I also have a 14 cc band. I had my first fill yesterday of 3cc and so far I do not see a difference.

Hello, I also have a 14cc lapband AP large....I had my first fill on 7/14 and I got a total of 3.5cc's...It was fine that day and maybe a day or two after, I felt like I did just after surgery....but now I feel like I can eat more (not as much as before surgery) but more than I would like too.....I do have to learn to recognize when the band tells me to stop eating....I notice I get an irritating feeling in my chest area if I eat too much. I'm hoping that another fill or two will get me to my "sweet spot!".....

1st fill 7/14 3.5ccs

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
