Fill did not go WELL at all



Recommended Posts

Had not had a fill since Oct 12. I had a fill on Wednesday and it was way too tight. I could not drink nor eat for 24 hours when I went back to the Dr. however doing this time I the foam coming up and liquid because my salivate would not go down. He took all he put in the day before out. Since then it has been very slow for me. I feel weak. I'm able to drink a little Water at a time but this is now day two. I have only had 1/2 cup of Soup juice twice. My throat hurt when i drink or try to eat soft food. Tried yogurt this even and after 30 min. only been able to eat a couple spoonful. I,m tried of everything coming back up. any suggestion?

You are swollen from irritation and should be on liquids. My Dr. usually puts people in this situation on liquids for about a week.

Take it easy and you will go back to normal.

A WEEK! OK at least I know it should take some time.

Yep, liquids until the swelling goes down. Being we are not Drs, you should give them a call and see what they advice. After all, they make the big bucks.

My surgeon's office says we need 2 days clear and 2 days full liquids after a fill/unfill. Try to go on liquids for a day or 2. Good Luck to you! Karen

Liquids definitely. Once aggravated the area around the and will swell and you really have to give it a rest.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
