I had my 1st fill ~1 week ago. Had the same thing. Pain w/swallowing. Very uncomfortable. I definitly have restriction. I realized I was eatting "too fast" and too big of bite. The norms like breads and dry meats were getting stuck. So now I have to take "bird size" bites and wait like 45 sec before taking another one. The full feeling is there-feels like if I take another bite I will through up. It's a huge learning curve.
