How to prepare body for a fill?



Recommended Posts

Hi everyone, I had my first fill last week and it was horrible. I landed in the ER. I am trying to figure out what I did wrong! Can the veterans tell me how do you prepare your body for fills? Going to try and convince my surgeon to give me another fill next week to see how my body will react this time around... And input will be greatly appreciated.

I'm on my cell so I can't see your statistical information but in short, you don't prepare for a fill unless your doctor gave you specific instructions to fast before coming in. If you had to go to the er, chances are you were too tight. You may want to suggest small quantities of Fluid. Best wishes and good luck

There is not much you can do to prepare for a fill. The only thing my doctor tells me is not to eat a couple of hours prior to a fill. as listed above you were probably filled too tight if you ended up in the er. small fills are good i think but some people are inpatient and end up having to get Fluid taken out. I had small fills and it took me a while to hit my green zone and the last fill only took 0.2cc. Sometimes after some of my fills i would be more swollen and sore then others but i did the liquids for a couple of days and took small sips.To me each fill is not the same. good luck

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
