What Do I Do To Prep For A Fiil



Recommended Posts

Hi Everyone

I Am Going For My First Fill This Friday And I Was Wondering What I Have To Do. Do I Have To Go On Clear liquids The Day Before? My Other Issue Is I Am Really Scared This Is My First Time Going For A Fill Can You Tell Me What To Expect, Does It Hurt?

Thanks

I don't do anything different the day of my fill, but you might want to check with your doctor on their rules. I have never had a fill hurt me, so don't be nervous. It will be done and over with before you know it.

I usually take a bottle of Water to drink just after the fill to be sure is not extremely tight. One time I had to go back immediately cause not even Water passed through. But do not be scared this is painless.

Just liquids before your appointment. My fills do not hurt and they have never been done under floro. The area is numbed with a tiny neddle and then the other needle is used to do the fill. My doctor finds the port with his fingers.

silly question - - just how long is the fill needle????

You don't really want to know. I don't like needles so I try not to look.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
