Just had my 1st Fill

[BellaNena 0]

I just came back from getting my first fill and to be honest I was scared for nothing. It was painless. I just jumped up on the table and laid down, my doctor pushed down too see if he could find my port and he couldnt feel it so he made me do a crunch and then he put the needle in, I didnt even feel it. He put in 2 cc's. I drank some Water it went down fine and I was good to go. So for those of you that are worried don't be.

I had the same experience at my first fill today! I was so worried about it last night it was almost like the night before surgery all over again. Turns out it was NOTHING! I told them I was scared so they put the "chicken spray" a topical numbing medicine first. Then the numbing shot. Then the fill. I asked when he was going to do it and it was already over! Drank some Water and was good to go! On Clear Liquids for 2 days, full liquid/soft food for a day and back on solids by Saturday. I'm pretty bumed that I'm on a liquid diet again...thought I would never have to do that again after surgery. But a few days isn't so bad. Its worth it.

I am going to have my first fill on 9-24 and was banded 8-17. I am still tender in the site and have been so worried after reading one persons experience as "the worst pain ever had" I am so glad to see you posts and hope this will be the same for me.:wub:

I did it without the numbing spray and I still found it easy and painless. Sagreenia my port site is still a little tender and I was fine, you will be fine too, there is nothing to worry about.

Hi to be honest I have no restriction what so ever, I have read on here that it could take weeks to feel the restriction after a fill, but as of now I am so hungry and I still can eat the same amount if not more.
