Self fills.
hey all.... k will this might come as a shock to alot of you from reading your posts but coz i was waiting for my doc in prague to do a second fill (no differene with first) i put back on the 1st that i lost i was not happy.... he kept making excuses not to make ect.... tried everywhere i could think of over here.... no luck as i did not have the surgery with them.... went to see my old weight loss doc and she wrote me out a presciption for the saline and needles and showed me how to do it myself.... i did my second refill two days ago on my own.... no probs what so ever :eek: and now i am feelin a little more full but will wait six weeks till i add some more in...... i know that u might think i am silly.... but its very hard over here to get refills done....
