Suggestions?
Is it all possible to find another doctor. That many fills seems excessive in the amount of time you have had the band.
I have had 6 fills, my last being August '10 . My fills have all been done under fluro. I love getting them done under fluro because I can see how big my pouch is and how small the opening is when the liquid goes thru. This does help when I want to put that extra mouth full in, (on the days I think I can eat all and everything) . I can visually recall how small my tummy really is.
A lady at my support group developed Hypoglycemia within the last 5 months and is now seeing a specialist. She was very sick. She had RNY which does happen often with RNY WLS..She is now following a strict diabetic diet. (I think it means that she has to really remove all the sugar from her diet)
Liquids not going down is a huge sign that you are too tight. Please call your dr asap
Best of luck
