Should I have a slight unfill or wait a full week?

LovingWhatIs · December 3, 2007

:help: So I had a fill (my third) on last Thursday. I am having trouble eating - only soft foods are painless. I tend to swell a lot, and my fills have changed (loosen up a bit) after a week in the past. (Today is the following Monday, 4 days).

So my question is, do you think I should go back in get a little pulled out, or stay on liquids/softies for the rest of the work week and see how it goes? I feel great and fine...

I know you guys aren't, mostly, doctors, but I find that I have gotten the best answers to support a decision before I talk to my Doctor. Just want the opinions of those that live it, first.

Hi There, if it were me I would wait it out for the week to see how you do. My doctor told me there are 2 types of tightness. Tightness to liquids which is really bad and tightness to solids. If you try solids and PB then move to a softer diet and lose it will be your decision on whether or not you want an unfill. You can lose on a softer diet ie. cottage cheese, cheese enchiladas, etc. but may have difficulty in solids. It really is your preference. I prefer to lose and eat a softer diet at 3.2 ccs. Julie
