Resrtiction stops 3 weeks after fill

I have had 3 fills so far. I noticed no restriction until my 3rd fill. i have lost weight and cant eat as much after first 2 but had no problem eating anything. After 3rd fill I could feel food go down and could not eat meat or raw vegies without some difficulty. 2 days ago i stopped feeling that feeling when food goes down. Its like I am opened up more. Does this ussually happen 3 or 4 weeks after a fill? I am a little worried something is wrong.

I think you should call your surgeon and ask.

You don't say how much saline is now in your band. It is not uncommon to feel a fair amount of restriction after a fill that puts you close to your sweet spot and then a few weeks later not feel as much. Obviously, if you are at like 4 or 5 ccs in a 10 cc band, that could be the case. If you have more, it could be something else. Talk to your doc but don't just assume something terrible has happened. I thought I was at my sweet spot twice before I actually was.
