Hi all
I had a fill on Thursday bringing me to 11 cc in my 13 cc band and I have absolutely have no restriction I have had restriction in the past but had been getting hungry and was deemed to need a fill , it was done under fluro and they tested to make sure they were in the port. I had restriction when they had me shallow the barium. Not sure what is happening has anyone had this experience I am famished.

I don't know how much they put in, 1cc 1/2 cc, etc. But I am always tighter right after a fill, maybe you need just a very small bit, more. Have you tried to eat something that is usually very hard to eat, bread, dry chicken etc? Of course only a small taste. If you have 0 restriction sounds like something may be wrong. They can take it all out, to make sure that 11cc actually fills the needle, then put it all back in. I hope it all works out, give Dr a call and tell them your symptoms.

I hope it goes well! I would think 1cc would give restriction. Good luck!

Did they remove your fluid first to confirm that you 10cc were in there?

So you saw them take ALL the fluid out, see that it was 10cc and then put 11cc in?

Hi, I hope that your doctor can help you out. I do not have restriction yet. I am having a fill today to bring my band up to 4 cc's. I hope this helps. Michelle.
