I was banded on 12/07/2010, I got my first fill 01/12/11 and it wasn't near as bad as I thought it was going to be. After the initial stick ,I really didn't feel anything. My husband was watching and said that he was poking around looking for the port but I didn't feel it. When he did find it I could feel something going on inside me, but it didn't hurt it just felt weird. Then when he finished he sat me up, but I suddenly felt faint and a tad nauseated... soo I laid back down for a few minutes and was fine. My dr said this was normal as the vasel vegal(sp?) nerves have something to do with the stomach and can cause that feeling when "messed with". Then he gave me a 16.9 oz water and said drink up! I got half down and felt full. He said that was fine..and I went home. Now, I can still eat anything I want (if I chew chew chew good) but instead of half a grilled ck sandwich I can only eat a lil more than a 1/4 of it.. and I don't get hungry between meals like I was. He didn't put a lot in and I was dissapointed..however it seems it really was the perfect amount for now. I'm very satisfied. =0)
