Getting my first fill today!

[~~Beth~~ 1]

:smile:Yes, I'm going for my first fill today, it was scheduled for Monday, but I can't take it, I'm starving so I called the doctors office and they told me to come on in! I excited and now nervous to the point that I'm sick!:bananalama:

Wish me luck, and hopefully I can have them snap a few photos of the doing today, and I will post them!

Good luck!

I am a few weeks behind you and am starving now ! My first fill isn't until a week from tomorrow.

Hope it is as easy as people say - hope to see a post from you letting us know how it went!

How exciting for you both! My first fill didn't give me an iota of restriction but it was still exciting for me because it felt like I was progressing. Most don't have any pain/issues with fills and either way, it is WORTH it! Good luck!

i just got back from my first fill just now. the doctor did the first fill under radiology. it was so freaking weird...i had to drink barium and he got the fill just perfect.....i will be on full liquids for the next 3 days....already my first couple sips i notice a huge difference in restriction....this is really starting to set in haha.

I have had two fills and fill no restriction at all

- I have only lost about 10 lbs

Just got back from my first fill! Yeay, it was so simple - he just had me push my belly up the ceiling and there it was, I did'nt feel a thing, I could taste it though, is that normal?

Congratulations on your first fill, Beth. I'm glad it was so easy for you. Mine have been too. I've had six, and I'll have to say, I've never tasted anything. It'll be interesting to see if anyone else has.
