Fill question

[Sarahd333 1]

Hey all! I was banded back in January and have yet to lose any weight (mostly because i've been too busy to get any fills recently). I went in 2 days ago (Tuesday evening) and had another cc put in so my total is 6cc. I had some restriction and had a lot of things get stuck with my 5cc but it didn't help me lose. now i am on the 2nd day after fill and im still having issues swallowing Water well. directly after my fill i went out with friends for a birthday dinner where all i could do was sip lemonade due to not being able to eat and that went down no problem. now im trying to drink water, juice, milk, anything. no bueno. im stuck chewing and sucking on ice cubes because i dont want to get dehydrated. will this go away after the swelling is completely down or should i call my dr?:drool:

Thanks!

I would give it another day to see if you are still having problems and then contact your doctor.

Also, does your dr. give you restriction after fills? I have to go back to full liquids for 2 days then mushies before I can introduce "regular" foods again.
