Time for 2nd fill...errr maybe not?



Recommended Posts

Had a fill May 12th (2.4cc) seemed to provide some restriction. Was loving it, except when i didn't eat on schedule and ate too fast or didn't chew well enough because i felt like i was starving.

For about the last 5-8 days been eating an increasing amount. Yesterday for dinner i know it was too much. (about 1.5-2 cups of mostly meat). I was shocked at how much i could eat, i even stopped several times to try to feel the fullness.

so this morning i contact the dr. for a fill appt, which we set up for the 14th. but then at lunch, i was barely able to eat about 4 bites of food. i even pb'ed. :confused2: should i cancel my fill appt? was this just a fluke? its not my TOM, so i know i wasn't tight for that reason. just thought it odd, that yesterday i feel like i ate like a pig and today could barely eat

restriction is so fickle sometimes...

i am more tight in the mornings/afternoons then pretty open by about 2. i am just under my perfect restriction right now and will be going in for another fill after my trip.

i say play out the next 1 1/2 weeks, see what happens. keep the appointment and if you continue to have PB issues, re-evaluate how you are eating (chewing enough, slowly, etc...) if that is good, then cancel the fill or tell them when you go and see what they suggest.

good luck

This is quite common. I would see how it goes for you in the next couple days. You can always cancel your appointment. Good luck.
