I had my first fill today and I didn't get numbed. I didn't even feel the pinch when they inserted the needle, I only felt the pressure of him pushing it in, but it didn't hurt at all.

I have had 9 fills and one tad unfil. Either way, my port is so close to the top of my skin, doesn;'t have to go very far. At the beginning, He did not even ask if I wanted to numb, now he does. I pass, unless he has it ready to go..

The first time no, but the second time yes I did! I am a baby and hate pain. I didnt even feel the pain meds. And when he pulled out that big needle I almost fell of the table..LOL..But it was way better with it numb!

I had problems with my band almost immediately. I swelled more than they expected me to. 48 hours after my surgery, I had to go back and have about 3 cc removed from my band. I didn't feel a thing. Honest, and I'm a whimp.

The hardest part is what we think it will be like. The reality is completely different.

Good luck.
