Guest guest Posted December 10, 2006 Report Share Posted December 10, 2006 Hello everyone I just need to get something off my considerable chest! I havent had a fill for 4 weeks and I am supposed to be 6.5ml in a 10ml band. That should be good right, well.....there were murmurs of a leak last time I had a fill....and I have been denying the obvious lack of fill signs for the past few weeks and now, unfortunately, it has back onto me in an emotional way and ALL I want to do is eat. i am stressed about what will happen tomorrow when I do go and see dr and get another fill - or at the very least find out if there is a leak. Fills are not very successful for me as I have been 4 times and filled twice due to difficulties in locating the port soft spot etc....so all that poking and prodding could have pierced the tubing and created a leak... I am eating way too much food, maintain or even put on about .5kilo - and I feel fat, fat, fat...I know the battle is 99% psychological, but crikey, this has thrown me for 6. It has been just over 4 months since banding and it has been doing SO well and now it seems to have turned a corner. What I am asking is, in a nutshell.....have I lost the romance with the band?? Has the honeymoon period worn off and I am truly such a pig that I can even ruin this? If there is a leak, what usually happens, I went into this with no insurance and paid upfront and I am now wondering if I am now setting myself up for a few more thousands of dollars. Isnt it the Dr's fault for piercing the tubing? Anyway, I am sorry for the rant and hope this is readable!!! Leah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
