Joanne, keep going back for fills until you can no longer eat more than 1/4 cup of food. It took me 5 fills.

I think I paid Dr. Romero in TJ $100 for Fluro.

Fill Centers USA I paid $499 total for first visit (fluro) and $275 each additional fill with a 72 hour free unfill if you're overfilled.

I am also self pay and I had my surgery done in Thousand Oaks California at the Journey lite surgical center. Being self pay I did my homework before choosing a surgeon. My fills are free for life. I know there are at least three facilty's across the nation. I would advise anyone considering LAP-BAND® to check out JourneyLite.com.
