Frustrated
Feb 10, 2011
Well I'm frustrated. I was banded Nov 09' and have had a lot of ups and downs. For the most part it has been good. It has been a whole lot more maintence than I anticipated. I've had to go to the ER twice now for unfills.The first time was in June10' and the ER Dr. took out almost all my fluid against my request. So, I spent a lot of money and time getting my band filled back up.
My last fill was in October and my band was at 8ccs. That was great. I was loosing weight and having to be more mindful of what I was eating. Then a month later all of a sudden the band tightened up. My saliva wouldn't even pass. So, again I had to go back to the ER in Nov 10'. This time I only let the Dr. take out 1cc because I was not going to go through all that again. So, now I'm at 7cc and have gained. I know it's mostly me having to fight my cravings and portions. It's also the Dr.s office doesn't have any appointments. I have an appointment for February 21st which I made over a month ago and had to have them double book the nurse for it.
I am up about 10-13lbs. I feel like I did before surgery. Depressed! My clothes are fitting tight again. I so need to get back on track and get my mind re-trained again.
