went for a fill and came back empty



Recommended Posts

Well i went to get my second fill and the doctor couldn't get the needle in the port. He poked me three times and dug around while he was in there it hurt like an sob o well. I go in next thursday so he can do it under fluro and hopefully get the needle in. Anyway just wanted to tell someone. Thanks for reading

Hate it when they dig with the frigging needle. Just pull the damn thing out and try again, dammit!

Sorry to hear you had a sucky first experience. I can't remember how many times I've been in for a fill, but it was only one time that I've had to experience that.

Wow, I am so so sorry you had to go through that! In 5 years I've never had a fill without the aid of flouro!

Bless your heart! I too know the pain <like sticking a fork into a raw steak and moving it around> Hang in there! I just hate that you have to go back a second time and they didn't handle it right then and there for you!

That happened to me with my first fill, although they were able to get me in the same day. I had a bruise the size of my fist from the digging. I go in for second fill in 2 weeks, am eager to see what happens...

Hope the next time goes more smoothly. I've always had my fills in the doctors office without fluoro and it's always quick and easy. Hopefully the rest of yours will be easy too.

Feel better soon.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
