Lalaj, I have my first fill on Thursday. I'm excited but nervous. I think my port is on the right side around my lower rib area. I haven't felt around for it! I'll keep you posted and you keep me posted after your fill. You're already doing Fantastic!!

Wow u r so lucky I feel my port 24 / 7! It protrudes out of my belly I have to be careful not to bump my belly on my desk at work or I see stars! I'm 5 weeks post op and that has been my biggest issue is port site pain. Mine is on the right below my ribs. Good luck to u. My first fillis 6/23

Lalaj I have my first fill on the 26th June & cannot wait! I have no restriction anymore as the swelling from surgery has gone down! Do you know how many mls are in your band just now? I have 1ml in a 10ml band!

How is everyone else getting on?

Let me know how your fill goes & I will keep you updated

Had my first fill last Thursday. It did not hurt but I was stressed out until it was over. Now I'll know what to expect. They didn't put much in, 1 ml I think. So far so good. I hope you are all doing great! Can't wait to figure out how this fill works out. Still mind over matter for me.

I have my first fill (I hope!) on June 26 as well. I was banded May 21 so it's 5 weeks and one day. That seems to be a common time for the first fill. After reading some of these posts I know pretty much what to expect. Does the doc charge for a fill? I have Federal Blue Cross. Good luck everyone!

Good luck to all of you having your first fill this week!

And don't worry, it's a piece of cake. I never even feel it at all. My only piece of advice is to take a big gulp of Water before leaving the office, not just a little sip. This way, if by chance you're too tight, you'll start gurgling up Water so you can have some of the Fluid removed right way. It will save you a lot of time and hassle.
