We are all nervous about our first fill. It's normal. But honestly it's really nothing. Your doctor may or may not give you a little numbing solution for your skin before he puts the needle in your port, however if he doesn't it's only a tiny needle and it never does hurt me. Usually the first fill they do under Fluoroscope. The only bad thing about that is the taste of the barium swallow again.. YUCK. Otherwise you will be fine. Good luck to you.
