1st Fill and very restricted

[angiebell 0]

I got my first fill this morning and they gave me 1.2 cc. The fill center made me drink a glass of Water before I could go home and as I was drinking it, I felt like I had a bubble in my throat. I was going to get some of the fill removed but then the bubble went away. They said I should be okay. I had some egg drop Soup for lunch and it went down just fine. I told the nurse that I have been having dizzy spells and she said I may be anemic (sp?) and I need to increase my Protein intake. I tried to have a Protein Drink a few minutes ago and OMG I had a mini PB! The protein drink is a liquid and I thought I would be able to drink that. Now I have a pain in my chest. Is this normal. The fill center really didn't think I was overfilled. Could it just be swelling?

Could it just be swelling?

It could be, this is why some Dr's reccomend 24-72 hours of liquids after a fill. Everytime I got a fill I would stop at McDonalds on the way home from Mexico and I would get a chocolate milkshake ..the same thing happend to me, it finally learned to drink slower.The next day after my fill was always better. You will adjust to the new sensation, just sip slowly for now but when it comes to solids in a day or2 and you can not keep food down, definately you may be too tight

They did tell me 72 hours of liquids, but also said I could drink the Protein Drink. It just didn't go down and I had a little slim come up. Yuck! Thanks for your advice.
