Hi,

Has anyone gotten a fill earlier than 4 weeks post-op?

Yes, I had mine at 2.5 weeks post-op and I've just had my second fill at 8 weeks post-op. I didn't notice a lot of restriction with the first fill and I only have a slight increase after the second. I am scheduled for a third on 12 Feb.

@@Miss Meg I have my follow up Wednesday which is 2 weeks post-op. I hate having to keep taking time off work. My doc is an hour away. I pray they give me a fill then abd I don't have to come back again in 2 weeks

@sweetgagr100 I hope for your sake you get one as well. My Doc did tell me that he gave me my fill at that point because it was close to the Christmas break. He definitely made a point of scheduling my second about a month after that. I'll keep my fingers crossed for you. Perhaps when you go for your post-op you can ask if there is a location closer to you to get your regular fills. My surgeon only did the first fill and the others are peformed by nurses in his surgery.

Good luck..

The closest location is the one where I had my surgery and my Dr is the only one who does the fill. I pray that I've healed enough by Thursday to get the fill.
