bad fill?

[Eileenja 0]

I just got back from the doctor. I had a fill about amonth ago and felt no restriction since then. So when he went to remove the saline before adding new fill, there was nothing there. Now he is worried that I might have had some slippage or possibly even that the last time, they completely missed the port. So, I am back on shakes for three days, then pureed foods another three, but I have to go back next week for another check. Please pray that I don't have slippage.

In our support group, they talk about being careful of one particular PA. Guess what, I had that one last time! Honestly, I hope that it was her fault and not slippage because that would mean more surgery - I want to cry!

Being able to see your port and the fact they hit the port is a benefit of using flouro, did your Dr. use fluoro this time? Hopefully they just missed the port the last time

Awwww Eileen,

I am sorry to hear you are having problems. I went to the Dr. on Friday, and I requested the doctor, not the PA. I don't feel any restriction as of yet, but as I read here....it sometimes takes up to a week.

Were you at support last week? There were so many people there...I don't recall seeing you...

Cheer up.....the DR. will get you straight....

Hugs

Thanks for your support - it really means a lot! Since I actually do feel restriction now, I am hoping that they just missed the port last time. Also, at the first fill, it hurt like hell and this time, I hardly felt anything at all. I guess I will have to wait until next week to find out for sure. Good news - I actually lost 1.5 pounds since yesterday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! See what a "good" fill can do.

No, Jorget I was unable to attend the last support group, but I do plan on being there next time. The paper that I have says it isn't until the 27th - it seems like a long time away!

Eileen...I am crossing my fingers for you that everything is OK. Sounds like it might be though just from the varied description of your experiences. Best of luck to you.

Hugs.
