kimmy215 0 Posted March 3, 2006 I just had my first fill this morning. My surgery was on 1/3/06. Before the fill, I could eat almost anything without any problem. On the way home from the doctor, I got a hamburger. I threw up part of it. I was very hungry and ate the first few bites without chewing very well. I then got the rest down slowly. This afternoon, I tried to eat a sliced, skinned apple....threw it up too. Is this normal? Does it ease up after a few days? Could I possibly have enough restriction with only one fill? Has anyone gotten enough restriction with just one fill? Please help... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Julie* 0 Posted March 3, 2006 I haven't had a fill yet but I do know that my doc said that the first 24 hours after a fill should be liquids only. You may want to check with your doctor on this. Hopefully someone else can help you with the restriction question. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

freebit 0 Posted March 8, 2006 It is very normal. I find that chicken Soup really helps me get through bad days (Cambell's). Watery chili (Wendy's) goes down good too if eaten slowly and and chewed very well. 30-45 mins to finish a meal is ok. Many times I get tired of eating before that time and just stop eating.
