How close together?

[twistedbarbieLA 7]

Just had a fill about two weeks ago and I know it wasn't enough. Do you think it's too soon for another?

My doc won't do it closer than 30 days I don't ever think it's an issue but ya gotta follow doc orders - right!?.

Not if your doc is OK with it. Most docs won't allow their patients to make that decision. A good doctor will query you about what you're eating and if you're losing weight and exercising?

Sometimes patients feel like they're not tight enough but they're eating slider foods. If you're following the rules and do not feel satiety for 4 hours I see no reason to not ask for another fill. I know I did, 6 times.

It can take a few weeks for a fill to "stabilize" and to show whether it is working or not. A fill can cause the stomach to swell, and it needs time to adjust. You can't rush the process; and don't be afraid to consult with your provider's office. As a reference, my doctor is conservative, and it took three fills and almost four months before I was able to see any weight loss. As you lose weight, you probably will need more fills to keep you in the green zone.

My dock likes a month. We tend to want everything fast, but be weary of trying to rush this process. Take it slow and easy, it'll last longer.

my clinic also has a 30 day guideline. I was told it can take up to 2 weeks for the effect to kick in. I waited 6 weeks between fills and stalled.
