I think this was "The Fill"!!



Recommended Posts

I went for my fill today and I think this is the one I have been waiting for! She put in 1cc, bringing me to about 5 1/2 cc's. Well, I am on liquids until tomorrow, and I ate a bowl of Soup for dinner. I am really full! Usually I am looking for what I can eat next, but not now! Now I really have to be extra aware of chewing my food, and swallowing to avoid stuck episodes. Normally, I have been able to chew and swallow regularly, though I always try to not do that.

I am really keeping my fingers crossed, that this is what I need!

It took me 4 fills, about 6 cc's to where I felt, and feel like im in the right spot. I go about 5 hours between meals and feel fine...... It's really great!!

My first fill was that much. I felt totally weird for a few days! Like the food would never pass through or something haha. But then it stopped, and then maybe a week or two later my hunger was completely gone!

Hopefully you found "it". I am at 5.5cc's in an 11cc realize band and I have no restriction yet... hoping my next fill will get me there - good luck! Thanks for the encouragement (knowing that it takes others multiple fills too).

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
