3rd fill next week and SCARED



Recommended Posts

my 3rd fill is next wednesday. and i am scared to death! how stupid is that? my others fill have been fine, no problems or anything. i dont know why i am so anxious/nervous/scared about this one. i have even canceled it and rescheduled it a few times. this fill will be done w/ fluoro. maybe that is why i am nervous. i havent had it done that way since the day after surgery in october. i havent had a fill since december. it makes me sick to my stomach to even think about it! whats wrong with me? i dont think there are any problems. i have been stuck for a long time without losing anything. i know i have really needed this fill for months now. ugh... i hope everything goes good. i mean, why woudnt it?

sorry, just kinda thinking outloud here. i thought maybe if i wrote it out i would feel better...yeah, that not working...

you shouldn't be scared. when I get my fills they always use fluoro. Plus, you don't have to get much fill. a little really makes a difference. if you don't want to be too tight, ask for a .1 or .2 fill. I go in friday for fifth fill. I had an unfill this past monday of 1. cc. they took out more than they put in my last fill, so I am at least asking for a .6 cc fill. 1 cc. was just way too much, and that is why I had to have a unfill. You will be fine, I know it!!!! :biggrin: best wishes

      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.
