melmarlem 0 Posted September 18, 2009 I went 2 days ago for my first fill. The physician assistant put 5 cc's in my band. I have a 10 cc Realize band. So far I don't feel any restriction, even though I thought 5 cc's was a bit much to start off with. My question is, how long does it take to feel restriction after a fill? She said give it at least 2 weeks. Has anyone had a fill, not felt restriction initially, and then later felt restriction? I know it takes a few fills to get to the "sweet spot" but I thought surely with 5 cc's I'd feel something different. :thumbup: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
margie2u 0 Posted September 18, 2009 HI,Im kinda in that position too. I was banded 7/10 and my first fill they put in 4cc . The last fill I got they put 1cc in. I still dont feel restriction. The closest I have come is when I didnt eat slow enough and chew enough. I got it stuck and it wouldnt come up or down. You cant drink so you just have to wait and that does hurt.
