Tightness In Chest After My Fill.....



Recommended Posts

Banded August 15th and just had my first fill last Thursday. Ever since my fill I have what I can best describe as like a tightness in my chest and like a bit of a lump in my throat. It's not painful, it's just a feeling I have not felt. Almost like a shortness of breath in a way. I'm drinking and eating just fine so I don't think I'm too tight. Anyone else ever experience something like this???

I did after my last fill in Jan. i felt it in the back of my throat for weeks, also when the took out the old Fluid and instilled the new, I felt an exterme amount of pressure in my chest. That was the first time that had happened to me. I will say even though you are eating and drinking ok if the discomfort continues I would call my fill doc and discuss this with him. Good luck.

I have not but it would not hurt to call your doc and get their opinion on it. You should not be uncomfortable.

When ever I felt that way I was always to tight and needed a little release... but it would also be combined with not being able to swallow anything... good luck!

Yes with every fill, for me it only lasts about a day then I'm back to normal. For the first day if my fill I stick to liquids then softer foods next day. If you are eating and drinking fine give it a day or two to settle. It's just a bit of swelling from the fill. If you are really concerned call them and let them know how you're feeling just to put your mind at rest.

Gratz on your first fill!

      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.
