So should I wait the 6 weeks for a fill?

 

What are your experiences. I am feeling alright. I think I could use a fill. I wanted to get it near my 5 week date. But after talking to the nurse he agreed with my Dr. that 6 weeks is better. Because of healing. But I read so many people get fills at 4 weeks. So I am confused. :thumbup:

It's hard to wait, but do what your doc suggests. These 6 weeks are the most important of your whole banded life for healing...don't want to mess up your tool before you even get the help from it!

Thank you! you have the best advice. The nurse suggested the same thing. To wait the six weeks out. I just had my first golf ball attack that was fun! OMG gross. The food came up what a relief.
