So last October I had a .5 cc fill - I went back to my surgeon at 6 mo to do a check up due to my gain last year and he took out .2 cc due to some reflux issues I've been having. What a relief. Its funny for a veteran bandster I should have know that I was a tad to tight but the symptoms that are now gone 3 days after my unfill were so subtle that I was inclined to ignore them or blame myself for them. So beware of new/increased reflux, night cough, puddling sensation when drinking and small pains when eating (not overeating).Owing to the fact that I'm almost 5 years out and I am having reflux (although its almost disappeared in the last 3 days) I am scheduled for an upper GI on 5/24/10. Keeping my fingers crossed that the band is still A OK!! Wish me luck, I'll update when I know more.
