hi nikki, u should just know u r doing this for u and ur health so u don't become an overweight adult. i kinda feel the same way about people wanting to be my friend after i lose the weight....like men at work who pay no attention now......i just figure i will only deal with people who seem genuine to me. u sound like u can tell the difference and will know who is real and who is not. hang in there and don't let them get u down! u r a special person and very brave to go through all this (especially surgery) just think positive and don't worry about them......just do u! have a great day!

I have the exact same experience EVERYTIME I have a fill.
As a matter of fact, if they don't get the needle in the port after a few minutes (searching for hole) I have to insist that they stop the procedure!!
I try to combat it by calmly picturing myself somewhere else, singing songs in my head, etc. etc. But like I said,....... if their in there too long it invetiablly happens.......I Cannot control it. It really is quite bothersome.:eek: Crazy as it sounds, it works a little better for me if my Shoes and socks are off!!!:cool2: I know now I sound crazy!!
Let me know if you find out anyway that helps you.
