I am going to wait.. I really appreciate all your responses at a time when I feel so vulnerable. Now is not the time for me to rush...  After the 3 months, if the upper GI doesn't pan out, then I will look at other options. If it does seem to be okay, I am going to do little baby fills to make sure slow and steady stuff.  Thank you for replying.

I personall would do everything non-surgical first.  (I really don't like cutting)  Than go really, really slow.  I had mine unfilled twice.  I really think it was filled to aggresively.  I also now an a believer in the loser you can keep it the better.

Yep. That is what I think I am going to do.... wait.... Then definitely go really slow... baby fills.  And for the 3 months unfilled I am going to be so ever vigilant and use the My Fitness Pal website to log in food and stuff.  Thank you for responding.

Sounds like a good plan!

Well I did it.  I spoke with Dr and explained my reasoning and she felt it was a good idea, especially since I really don't want to have another surgery without first trying to make this work. I am going to wait 3 months for this to heal, have another upper GI, she will have it reviewed and then we can go from there. She said that because it slipped and was not "eroded" that is why I should give it a try.  Fingers crossed, thank you all for your responses.
