removed 2.5cc of my first fill



Recommended Posts

Ladies,

I had my first fill on Monday, I was having some problems after but figure I would give it a few days. Of course liquids then mushy's for 3 days. Well yesterday was Protein Drink then Soup at lunch, at dinner I tried a soft chicken nugget, well forget about it! I pb for about 2 hours then vomited several times, I felt my esphougas(sp) contracting, I really got scared.

This morning called the doctor and they had me come right in. The fill on Monday was 1.75cc's and today they took out .25cc's, so what does that mean, where am I at right now? I know a lot of you have had experience in this. I also dropped another 3 pounds since Monday....

My doctor said liquids for another 3 days and then puree and then regular food. I still feel soreness in my throat and esphougas.

Thanks all.

That does not make sense

2.25 is greaterthen 1.75

could you of meant .25 cc's?

If you had 1.75 and they removed .25 then you would be at 1.5cc's

I would find out for sure, that needs to be clarified for your own personal records.

I would be calling my doctor and asking exactly how much they took out and how much you have left. Also what size band do you have? If you have the small band, then 2.5cc sounds like a lot to be a fist fill! I would need to know what they actually did.

Phew! Glad you clarified that.

Having .25 removed should make a difference in being able to eat but still give you restriction. I hope this fill level works better for you :)

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
