Not having fun with my first fill



Recommended Posts

I have to say that I have been very uncomfortable with my first fill. I have a lump in my throat that wont go away. It feels like a snot ball. So I called the office and they said liquids for two days and see how I feel on friday. I might need to go in on Friday and have some taken out. So frustrated. They just make it seem like everything is so easy breezy and all I read about it problems people have. :(

Did the dr have you drink anything in the office? Mine got stuck on Water and he had to take out .5 cc. Since then I really have to slow down and chew a lot, otherwise everything but liquids get stuck.

Yes I drank some Water and it was fine felt normal. It wasnt until later that evening that it started bothering me.

I, too, have that strange throat ball thing....and then give a little burp...the PA backs off a tiny bit from there and then I am fine...it sounds like you need a very very tiny adjustment. You are wise to not "tough it out".

I am by far not on my first fill, surgery in 2003, but I am having the same symptoms this time around. I can only eat about every three days as it seems once I eat I get that lump in my throat feeling and sometimes can't even drink anything. Others have suggested drinking a hot liquid to help with any swelling, especially if you throw up any but even that doesn't help. I think I am in the same boat and am going to have to go back and get some Fluid taken out.

I am going in tomorrow to see what they say. I am going to push for them to take some out. Maybe just a tad and go from there.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
