  1. Hello Kim,

    How are you doing? My very first fill was not as bad as I first thought it would be. In fact my doctor made it very painless and stress free. Some people need something to numb their site, but I did not use any numbing meds. The needle used was very thin to access my port. You will need some cool water to drink after your saline is injected to make sure you are able to swallow appropriately with nothing hanging up. You want to experience a little resistance but then the water should go down smoothly. I had 2ccs put in but my doctor put 3ccs in just to allow me the experiences of an over fill. He removed 1cc and I felt just fine. (part 1)
