Has anyone felt weird after their fill?



Recommended Posts

Hello..Has anyone felt weird after their fill?

I had my first fill today and driving home I got this weird taste in my mouth. And I am not feeling well....very tired and achy. I don't know if this is a coincidence or what. I just don't feel well. I just feel weird...hard to explain....hope i am not getting sick.

I haven't had those symptoms, but I am usually quite gassy after a fill. I'm not sure if these two things are related or not, but I've noticed how I burp for an hour or so after each fill.

Its probably just a coincidence. Having a fill doesn't normally make you feel unwell. How much did your Dr put in and are you able to drink? If you haven't had anything to drink you may be starting to get a bit dehydrated which can make you feel unwell.

I got a 2cc fill. I am drinking fine so I know it is not that....oh man I hope I am not getting sick! I feel tired and achy!

I also googled side effects of Lidocaine

This drug may make you dizzy or drowsy; Tell your doctor immediately if any of these unlikely but serious side effects occur: drowsiness, mental/mood changes, ringing in the ears, dizziness, vision changes, tremors, numbness, headache, backache.

Benadryl works wonders for allergic reactions. If you aren't throwing up, give it a try. If it isn't allergy, it won't hurt you.

I have the same symtoms after a fill. I had a fill on Oct. 20, 2009, and I felt achy all over. This continued for 2 days. I also notice this the first time I got a fill. After a couple of days then I feel fine.

I HAVE FELT THIS WAY BEFORE TOO!!! I have to drive an hour to/from my fill and while on my way home from my second fill my throat started to hurt and I felt horrible that whole day/night. I wondered myself if it was just a coincidence and thought I have to just be getting sick.. it was weird. But the feeling came instantly after I left the doctor's office.

I took a small swig of my leftover pain meds before bed and that took care of it. I did not feel like that with my 1st or 3rd fill.. hard to say if it was coincidence or what happened.

My friend said that she felt like she was getting the flu and was sore for 1-2 days after the first fill. Didnt have it happen on the second or third however. We have to remember that everyone is different.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.

      I would like to know what questions you wish you had asked prior to your duodenal switch surgery?
