Fills - AM or PM?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone noticed a difference in how successful their fill is depending on if they get it in the morning or late afternoon? My doctor only does fills on Monday afternoons or Tuesday mornings. I scheduled my first fill in the morning - due to my work schedule but then I started thinking, I wonder if you get more restriction on an empty stomach vs. a full stomach.

I think we go to the same doctor!! Funny enough, I, too, hate having to schedule fills because I wonder the same thing. I do whatever works in the schedule usually, but feel more comfortable with the Monday afternoons because I've then had a half day of eating solids before being on liquids only for 48 hours......though, I usually weigh less in the morning, and I love to have lost weight when I visit.

I am tighter in the morning, so I prefer the afternoons because I get a better sense of how I'll truly feel after the fill, whereas the mornings are a challenge to get/keep food down regularly.

I'll be curious to see what others say....

I have only had one fill and that was at 12:15 pm last week, so I am not sure about a difference, between morning or afternoon fills

All I know, is that in the morning I am more restricted than any other time during the day.

I will have eaten Breakfast before my fill so my stomach won't be totally empty.
