fil/overfill - cost

my last visit to Dr. Peters/CHRIAS was my last - at all costs.  i went back to Dr. Peters/CHRIAS on 3/18.

i found out i have a 4 cc band.  i was at 1.75 cc.

i have paid cash for the hospital, anesthesia, surgeon, appointments and fills.  my insurance's reply  has been "expenses for weight modification including appetite suppressants are not covered by the terms of your contract".  (bite me!)

i wanted a fill.  i asked for 1 cc fill.  Dr. Peters said it was too much. 
we didn't know how much was in the band since there was an error in my records.  first the band was emptied.  then my requested fill was put in. oops too much.  i found out immediately since the water would not go down.

Dr. Peters said he would take .5 out but would have to charge me.  I thought he was kidding. he had just emptied the band.  put in the requested fill.  then had to remove some fill since it was too tight. 

i ended with a total of 2.25 out of 4 cc.

i was charged a double visit. OMG!!!!  (DON'T MEAN TO WHINE BUT - I AM FOOTING THE BILL HERE, I AM UNEMPLOYED, I AM TRYING. . .)

just wanted to vent.  business is business but wanted to warn/let others know.
