Fill question help



Recommended Posts

I had my lap and placed about a year ago. I have been able to maintain about a 40 to 50 pound loss.Ups and downs and I totally refocused. I just had a fill on Tuesday and I am experiencing very increased restriction. I can barely keep liquids down. But the last time I had a fail I had to go for an unfilled the next day because he put too much Fluid in the band and I and after that I basically had no restriction which is why I've been up-and-down so much so I don't want to jump the gun and go ahead and call and have him do it unfill when maybe this is just some swelling because I am experiencing a little more pain at my at my port site than I ever remember having before so I'm thinking maybe it's just swollen and I should wait a few days any advice??

Can you sip slowly and keep liquids down? If so, I might wait it out a couple of days. If even with slow sips things come up, I probably wouldn't wait, due to fear of dehydration.

My surgeon tells me it can take 5 days for swelling from a fill to go down...I normally stay on liquids for that time.

Since I has three days of not keeping even Water down . I went for an unfill hopefully he didn't take out too much . He does my fills under fluoro and says it looks like it's going through are you sure you want me to take any out ... I was like YES!!! I mean when the barium goes through it looks like it's fast but three days of torture ..... I went with having some taken out .

      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...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        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.
