I had my first Fill

aileena · June 25, 2005

I couldn't feel a thing...except a little pressure...My Dr gave me a little shot to numb the area, he gave it to me next to my main incision site, which was nice because I haven't regained feeling there, and then he took a larger needle to put the Fluid in... it felt a little odd when the needle went in the port... but it did not hurt. I was so worried about this, and it was a breeze! Now I just hope I feel more restriction. I was beginning to eat myself out of house and home! In fact I gained 4lbs from my last Dr visit (I went off liquids right after that appt). I'll find out today if this fill is helping... I brought a lean quizine for lunch... I have my next appt in 6wk, but if I don't feel anything I may call and see if they can get me in earlier.

Aileena, our bands have the same birthday. I am waiting for a fill until July 19 and am also ready to eat house/home. But I'm am nervous about working in Liberia next month and told me dr I didn't want a fill.

How much fill did he put in? Let me know how it goes.

For now, I am going to try and avoid gaining anything back. Congratulations on getting your fill.....enjoy and think thin...

My ex husband is from Liberia...Be careful! They are truely smooth talkers... and most of them like round women I'm saying be careful because mine divorced me 2mths after he got his greencard.

My Dr didn't tell me how much but I heard him tell the nurse in was 1.5.
