Are you on Clear Liquids 3 days after Fill?

Just wondering what some of your Doctors orders are as far as Diet after a fill.

My Dr. said 3 days on liquids then back to normal.

I was told one day liquid, next day mushy. I just got myfirst fill and said I have a wedding that night at a country club can I eat- siince its my first he said its fine. (But dont take that bit of advice from me- I havent lost yet:)

My doc says 24 hrs after fill, Clear Liquids only. Then on to protien shakes for 2 days. Then mushies.. and so on. He was okay if I wanted to stay on protien shakes up to 5 days. This is just to make sure the swelling has gone down.

My doc. says 24hrs liquid, then mushies for 24. I have had trouble after most of my fills. Think I will go ahead and stay on liquids another day or 2 after my next fill.

My doctor is the same as yours... 72 hours of clear liquids. She does allow the Protein bullets as clear liquid, though.

Honestly, I was never able to make it the full 72 hours on just clear liquids until my most recent fill (my 4th fill). After all my other fills, I'd go about 24 hours on clear liquids, but then get so darn hungry I had to progress on. So, I just took it slow and had Soup, yogurt, cottage cheese first. I never had a problem w/anything getting stuck until my 4th fill.

My doc says liquids for the rest of the day after a fill, then cautiously back to regular foods the next day-- BUT she really stressed to listen to my body move slowly (start soft and see how it goes). She told me that some doctors are really strict which liquids, then mushies, etc because she wanted me to know that the swelling can be a real problem sometimes. (it wasn't for me this time, but it was my first fill.)

My doc is full liquids the 24 hours after a fill, the 2nd day mushies then back to normal. I haven't had any trouble yet (knock on wood) and am at 6.7 cc in a 14 cc band. After the first 3 fills, it's usually only .1 or .15 cc per time and it does feel like a lot.

My fill was yesterday. My instructions said Clear Liquids 24 hours. Day 2 & 3 clear liquids and Protein Drinks. After the 3 days of liquids then 5 days mushy, then return to normal as tolerated.
