Bell1138 1 Posted March 22, 2010 I am going for my second fill tomorrow. I am 5 weeks post-op I had 2ccs put in at 4 weeks, but it did nothing. I am still able to eat a lot. I only had 2ccs put in because I am so scared to be so tight that I can't even swallow. I have a 10cc band. I would like suggestion from others with 10ccs bands. How much should I put in this time? How much do you have in your band and do you feel restriction? Thanks in advance. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the new jill 0 Posted March 22, 2010 you dont have to personally worry about how many cc's, thats for the dr to figure depending on how much food you can tolerate now. todat i had my 2nd fill which i have a total of 5cc's so im on the liquid stage but after my 1st fill i had 3.5ccs and i was able to eat alot and almost everything. make sure you wait about 15 mins after the fill and try to drink some Water to make sure everything goes down fine. i've notice sometimes you have to wait alot longer like a few hours. hope that helped. good luck tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bell1138 1 Posted March 23, 2010 Do you have a lot of restriction with the 5ccs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
the new jill 0 Posted March 23, 2010 i'm not really sure. right before my fill i started to feel a little pain on my side and wasn't sure if it was possible gas (literally 3 mins before my fill) just on liquids today, so i'll know more tomorrow and the next. just remember that everyones body is differenti would say just take things slowly. how much are you able to eat?
