Has anyone else ever experienced bleeding after a fill? I had my first fill today. A few seconds after he removed the needle, blood began gushing. :thumbup: I asked if this was normal & they said no but gave no reason that it would have happened to me. While he was injecting the Fluid he mumbled something about it going in slow. Then after there was the bleeding...now I'm all freaked out. Someone please tell me if this has ever happened to them before or if anyone knows why it might. Help me please! Thanks! Kim

I'm scheduled to be banded August 20, 2009. I've been told by my dr that he does not require a liquid pre-op diet. No actual eating changes are necessary for me at all. I don't think I've seen anyone else with these instructions - just curious, IS there anyone else that didn't do the liquid diet prior to surgery? I know they're the drs, but I'm kinda scared to not do the diet after hearing so many others who have had to. There must be a reason for the liquid diet everyone's been on, right? Thanks for your help! Gettin' kinda nervous... Kim:unsure:
