  1. I know the most productive fill I had was May 29th and it was really tight. I called my doctor and he said to go back to liquid forms of protein and really try to stick it out. He said as long as you can swallow liquids and protein in liquid form, then you will get the nutrition you need. I know what you mean by being able to eat whatever you want, because that is how I determine when I need a fill. That started with me about a month ago. Stay strong!
  2. My last fill on May 29th was the same way. I had to stick to protein shakes and liquids for about 3 weeks after. This has been my most successful fill out of 4 that I have had. I had a fill that was too much and I couldn't even swallow my own saliva! I had to go back and have 1cc removed then I was fine. There is a fine line between very tight and overfull!
