lexi85 Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 (edited) hi everyone, i just read a post that stated that a bandster was given the VG band as most of her weight was in her tummy. i had the 10.75 (4cc) capacity band placed last oct. and i was always tight. my band slipped this month and was taken out. all of my weight was and is in my tummy. do you think i needed the bigger VG band? i want to be rebanded and i want to get it right... much thanks ahead, lexi Edited August 18, 2006 by lexi85 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelley Posted August 19, 2006 Report Share Posted August 19, 2006 Lexi - I'd definately discuss this with your doctor. It is the doctor who makes the choice of what band to place based upon your individual circumstances. Are you going to get your second banding done by Dr. Ortiz? If so, express your concerns before you have surgery. Chelley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
