  1. Has anyone had the experience of saline shooting out of ???? when the RN pulls out the needle after a fill?
  2. I had a fill done on 8/23/06. It was difficult and painful seeing the doctor didn't seem to find "spot" easily. He only put 1cc in on that day. I feel a little more restricted but can still eat everything just takes a little longer. Yesterday I was shopping, got really light headed, hands started shaking, sweating, and lightheaded. I had to go and eat something immediately or I felt like I was going to faint. First off, should I call my doctor and ask if they could put in more saline? I have not lost anymore weight since the fill and I am always hungry. Second, has anyone ever felt lightheaded and needed to eat like that? I have heard of "dumping" but I thought that was only with the bipass surgery. Thanks for everyone's help.
  3. i have dropped 2 pants sizes but my body shape isn't the same so I am still not fitting into some of my clothes I want to. It's seems to be a lot around the middle and surgery sites that are puffy. marge.
  4. I am anxious to get my first fill done next week. At this point I am not having any trouble eating anything but meat. I am curious to see how that changes. I am waiting to lose more than a pound or two a week like my doctor stays. I better start walking and trying to get back to Yoga. Marge.
  5. I got banded in Flint MI....going well so far. Just up for my first fill and am very nervous about what is going to happen after that. Anyone with any ideas, techniques, or testimoney?
