Wednesday I am suppose to go in for a fill. I'm still on soft foods. My question is that for the most part I've been able to handle all the soft foods, I just noticed that I had a small problem with fish and then re-fried Beans once. I think I hate to much at one time or took to big of a bite I think. It felt like it was slowly going down my esophagus it was like I had to burp but if I did food would come up, but I never burped it went down. I am hungry most of the time though. So I was just wondering can you still get a fill if you've had trouble like that, but your still not staying full for 3 or 4 hrs? I just did not want to get a fill if it was going to cause more problems. My Dr. uses fluoroscope will that make a difference in determining whether or not I need a fill?

Yes, you can still get a fill. Sometimes certain foods just tend to be more difficult. Sometimes we are simply not eating small enough bites or chewing enough. What you're experiencing is very normal.

Your doctor will know what's best, especially since he uses floro for his fills.

Best wishes :)

I agree with Missy, Stephanie.

I've had 4 fills in 8mths and still have to pay attention to bite size, chewing and speed. So easily we forget, or eat mindlessly.

I have found that certian foods are trouble some to me, like chicken. Either that or I haven't learn to eat it properly.

I have found that this whole process is a continuing learning process.

Wish my Dr did fills with fluro, wouldn't have to continually worry if I'm too tight or just stupid.lol
