Ahh relief....

So glad you are feeling better, I know the feeling after having mine completely unfilled. I'm glad to hear your doc says the scar tissue may be what causes the tightening, that was my theory but had no actual truth so sounds like my "diagnosis" was right. He sounds like a great doc hopefully he can keep you comfortable. I'm still not gaining even with mine being empty, I think it's because now I can eat the solid protein better and it keeps me full even without saline in there. Hope this does the trick for you!

very glad you got relief michelle !

Thanks!  I'm not sure why I never even considered the fact that scar  tissue might be a problem for me as I normally keloid with surface scars.

Eh well, you live and learn.

I know exactly what you are talking about.  I havent had a single issue with acid since my surgery.  It is so wonderfull to sleep without choking on acid.

So glad you've got some relief!
