Anyone had a fill day before flying



Recommended Posts

So my doc asked me to go see him for a fill the day before I go on vacation. Has anyone flown right after a fill? Does this matter? I'm just a little concerned. I have had three fills and have no restriction at all and really want to get my fills because I am desperate to feel restriction. Please give me your advice.

Thanks

I've flown within hours after having a fill with no problems

at all. Good luck.

I don't think I'd have a problem with flying per se but I avoided fills before vacation just because you never know how you will react. Each fill I have felt a lot tighter and had a few sticking issues two or three days later, Nothing major but nothing I'd want to deal with on a vacation either.

It's Vegas for me. Get my fill on Tuesday and leave on Sunday for the Sin City. I'm not afraid of anything. My husband and I plan on sharing a meal so I won't get too full. I'll be at 9.5 cc's in a 10 cc band. So I hope nothing goes wrong but should know how I feel by Friday before we leave just in case. Good luck to you.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
