Well went to see Dr. ALLAM and had a fill up today.
I didn't realize that when he fill you he also removes the last amount of fluid to see if it is all there. Then he fills you up witht the new level.
A little truoble with finding the port but once there smooth sailing.
I feel a difference already Just from this morning.
Retunrd home and tried to have a cup of coffee, try more like a couple sips of coffee.
I'm sure it will be a couple of days untill I try any type of solid food.
Once again, on-ward and up-ward, only moving forward from here.
Until we type again......

Hi all,
CChheeffyy, that's what it did for me too. I felt some restriction for a day or two and then it would almost feel like the band wasn't working. It also makes a difference how many cc's you get. Sometimes I would get 2cc's and sometimes I would get 1cc. I believe that they are a little more aggressive than they used to be, but don't worry everyone is different and it may take you 4 cc's to feel restriction and it may take 8cc's for me. So just go with the flow and you will get there soon enough. Good luck.
Debbie , I am very excited for you please keep us posted and let us know if you want an angel to visit. Good luck, you have gone through all of the obstacles, now it is all down hill, and you will make out just fine.
Talk to you soon,
Jamie

You sound like me only a couple of months ago. As my daughter's sometimes say"YOU GO GIRL".
Thats great to hear and GOOD LUCK.
Dr. will take care of you.
Ask all the questions you can think of.( like I did today, he must hate me coming because all I do is question everything) I don't mean in a bad way BUT I like to get as much info as possible.
GOOD LUCK you "LOSER"
