First Fill

[bandedjeremy 5]

Well I got my first fill today. I was a little anxious because my wounds are not quiet healed. I am happy to report that all went well. The PA had to stick me twice with no luck finding the port. So she sent me to xray and did it there. It turns out she was pretty far off but the xray found it with no problem. None of the sticks were that bad. I thought they would be worse. I am a little sore now but no problems. Since I started the pre-op diet on 3-1-12 and surgery on 3-9-12 I am down 37 pounds. Pretty unreal if you ask me. All without starving.

Let the new habits begin..........

Did she tell you how much she put in for this first fill?

And when do they want you to come back...

That's nice they took u down to X-ray. They just stab and stab til they find it on me! I had 15-20 stab marks last time and was bruised almost to my belly button. The nurse had to bring in more lidocaine. They gave me 8 or more shots of that! I was sooo sore!

@B-52, they put just 2cc in. I travel for a loving so we are taking it slow. I don't want to have issues on the road. My next fill will be 3-4 weeks. They told me to start mushies today to make sure I do not have issues on the road. So far no problems. I had eggs this morning and a bannana for snack. So far so good.
