neenagh 0 Posted January 9, 2007 Thanks for your good thought everyone!!! Okay called bright and early mon morning (9:00)and they said i could come in at 3 and dr. c. could take out th efill. I hung up the phone and thought screw that and got in the car. I got there at 12:30 and no patients were there at all. Sue and tammy were tho. Sue said she would call Dr. m and see if she could take it out. I said i want to go down to 1.6 but Dr. m (after yelling he told me so) said i had to go right down to 1.5, which was fine by me at this point. They made me drink a whole glass of Water (which took me about 15 minutes) and made me go out and get some Soup and come back and let them know that i got it down. I am still VERY tight, but not in agony, and dr. m said its gonna be rough for a while til the self imposed SWELLING goes down. at least i can slowly get water down. ps. they were kinda horrified when they weighed me and i was down over 5lbs in 3 days. I think once i get rehydrated tho, it will bounce back up, so i'm not changing my ticker til my weigh in day on thursday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

neenagh 0 Posted January 9, 2007 I do feel better Argon, but still having a LOT of restriction! Yah Yoda, I'm gonna totally have to eat humble pie the next time i see him! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yoda 0 Posted January 9, 2007 don't forget Neenagh that you are likely swollen...so you will for sure feel very restricted, even with the defill...it'll go down to where it is a comfortable restriction eventually! Be nice to yourself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CLOE 0 Posted January 9, 2007 Ditto with yoda, drink some creamy Soups and stuff, take it easy. I can't believe that that little made such a difference. I was thinking about asking for a fill, from 1.6 to 2.0, but now you scared me. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wheezy 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Sorry to hear about all your trouble. I kinda blame Dr M though, even though you do lurve him. He should have stood his ground with you. He's the Doc, the expert, not you!!! So Dr M. is going to have to learn with this one and you are the one suffering. Hope your feeling better soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neenagh 0 Posted January 10, 2007 OOOh wheezy have you and dr. m had a falling out!? hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lila 0 Posted January 10, 2007 I missed the whole episode! Sorry Neenagh! Happy you are better! I never felt as bad as you were describing. Funny story -- I was at Walmart and since I don't have a scale with me (dam it) I was in the scale section and pulled out a scale to weigh my self. A man walks by and says to me "you're not supposed to do that til you get home" (from holidays) How desperate can I be? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
neenagh 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Oh wow, i'm glad you werent in as much distress as i was, cuz if i flet that bad away from home, i don't know how i would handle it!!! Look at your ticker!!! 176 you lucky girl you! Boy that guy was brave talking to a strange woman like that. he must have been a confirmed bachelor. it would be hilarious if you went pms all over him! yelling and crying and asking him if u looked fat!hehehe Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bandiva 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Neenagh, I can see how you wanted 'more'. I feel like when I get my first fill they should do a really really big one cause I have to fly so far...but then again...maybe not! Glad you are feeling better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
