First Fill

I got my first fill in early November... 6 weeks after my surgery. My mom and I flew in to San Diego and decided to save some money by taking the bus and the trolley to the border. Cost 3-4 bucks each way and it was a piece of cake. I would do it again in a heartbeat. Took a cab from the border and almost got killed cuz the driver was crazy and he cut off some other cabbie and the other cabbie cut him off and started screaming at him in spanish about whatever... All i got out of the conversation was that they would discuss it again later but that my cabbied had "la passaga"... I am assuming that is the passengers?? *US*... The office was hot, and the only thing on TV was in spanish, but not a big deal. Dr. Martinez talked with me and mom for a good 15 minutes before he put 2.2 cc's in. It was very cool to watch them do it with the flourescopy.

 

I had no problems after the fill, and we even had lunch in TJ before taking the trolley back to the airport... Did it all in 12 hours... very cool!
