major restriction

[cuteepiety 0]

Hi All...just a quick question...

I had my second fill last week (first fill was 2 ccs, this second one was 1 cc...) and am at a total of 3 cc's in a 10 cc band.

After my first fill- I felt a little restriction, but could definitely use more. After my second fill...I am totally tight....but at only 3 cc's??

While we were doing my fill, my dr mentioned that everyone is different, but he doesnt think I am even close to where I have an optimum amount of restriction...then whoa! 48 hrs later...major restriction!

I know that everyone is completely different, but when did you start to feel you were at you "sweet spot"?

Thanks!!

When was your fill? If it was within the last day or two odds are you're swollen. Otherwise, ???

I had my second fill on the 20th...so today makes 1 week.

Then either you are not chewing things well...(It's a learning curve), or you're still swollen, or your doc is wrong. Mine usually nails it because he can tell by the resistance he feels when he instills the saline. I say just enjoy it while it lasts! :crying:
