Hi everyone I had my first fill dec 12 the doc put in 3.5 cc and I drank water fine but now I feel like I'm having issues I did liquids first then mushy now I'm on soft and reg food but so far I can keep down like hot dogs sometime eggs and mashed potatoes anything is consider soft. However I've had 4 episodes where things have gotten stuck had a burning sensation that sometimes ended with me puking! I am afraid I am not chewing enough and getting things stuck terrifies me I can eat things u would think I couldn't and then easy things like eggs will get stuck is it possible my band is too tight ?! Any tips for slowing down on eating ;( food has been my comfort!! Should I call my doc or jus focus on eating slower??? Help!!

Ok thanks

Ok so my incisions are kinda pink around the edges and itch are we able to put neosporin on our scabs?? Jus curious before I call the nurse if anyone else's are?!! They don't hurt jus look ugly

I had a BM and was happy lol

Is there a certain kind to take??

I am the same as think no BM I'm terrified to take a laxative i don't want runs lol
