Does getting a fill hurt

[Wickedgirl7 4]

I haven't had my first fill yet and am nervous of it hurting

It does not hurt at all. If you are afraid of needles, as I am, do NOT look. Other wise it is less irritation than a flu shot and your in and out in less than 3 minutes. It really is no big deal:)

Search through youtube for lapband fills and you can see one being given.

It does not hurt but the needle is scary just dont look at it!!

Really don't look at the needle but my Surgeon always says a stick & burn and I really don't feel it but I am terrified of needles so even if I get a blood test I have to turn my head and close my eyes lol so it only hurts a bit but hopefully the person that does your fills know what their ding my Surgeon only messed up once and I told him abut it and Reminded him the next time so no worries.

I'm scared too, I have my first fill this week. I had 2 amino tests when I was pregnant and it was horrible! I felt the needle pierce through my skin and it hurt so bad! How long is the needle In for? I'm nit squeamish about getting shots or blood tests normally but this terrifies me for some reason.

I hate needles, but this is just a tiny prick. That's never hurt us before.

My Dr. uses a "freezy spray" to numb the area first. No pain!

My doctor does not use anything before filling. I barely feel it. Just don't look at the needle. You will be fine.

I have my first fill May 6th. I'm nervous also.

Had my first fill Tuesday - i was also very nervous about the pain - and believe me when I saw the needle it did not make me feel better - Nurse asked if I would like some freezing - I said hell yes..lol

Very small prick with freezing needle then no pain but was glad I got the freezing as she did "dig" around as apparently my port is a little on the side? Anyway did my 24 hrs liquid 24 mushy and planning a "regular" supper tonight.

Good Luck!

I didn't feel a thing!!! I think the area is still numb from.surgery ?!

Doesn't hurt at all!!! It takes 2 or 3 mins (and i may be stretching that) and your done, it takes me longer to walk from the parking lot and up to his office then it takes to get a fill.

I feel nothing.
