Several of us commented on Fills. You should be able to go back and read about all of them.

Its nothing. They put a needle into your port and put a little fluid in. You will drink a little water to make sure it goes down ok. Its very quick and simple. You may or may not feel a tiny pinch when the needle breaks the skin. Really... its nothing.

thanks. I kind of though that, I wasn't sure if I could drink before I got my fill or not. I am not too computer savy so sometimes I can't find out how to get back to read some of the answers.

Read my blog section "what not to do during your first fill" The first fill is really, REALLY, not a big deal.....don't take the shot so it doesn't hurt because it really doesn't hurt, and don't panic because it makes your new tummy get mad! Good luck!

How long do you have to wait after surgery to have the first fill?

Usually 6 weeks after surgery is the first fill
