Why Do I get so Scared before Each Fill?

Going for another fill tomorrow.

I've developed a "fear of fills"....

I had one early fill experience before I knew to fast b4 & after the fill---it was very unpleasant.

I'm mostly scared that I won't be able to take all my Rx's--and also of that horrible feeling of stuff "getting stuck"

Yes i guess i'm a weirdo:crying:

No you are definitely not a wierdo. I am contemplating another fill right now and I'm a little worried. I have good restriction but maybe not enough to keep my hunger down or to lose weight at a regular pace but what if the next fill is too tight? That could can cause many problems. So it makes sense to be concerned and maybe even a little scared. But I try to think positive.

NO, GD, you are not weird. I have all kinds of fears before a fill. Will they be nice to me, will they put the right amount in, will they give me any, will I have to see the doc (I hate him), will I be too tight, will I shut down, etc, etc, etc!!!!!

Hi GhostDog,

Do you take all your medications in one bog handful? I used to take them all at once. Now I have to spread them out a bit and take them one at a time.

I think as we get closer to proper restriction we get more nervous at fills. I was overfilled once and had to go back for a slight unfill. When I returned for the next fill I was very nervous about it, but I hit my sweet spot!
