Fill yesterday... tight due to swelling?

I had a fill yesterday. I haven't had a fill in about 10 months.

I am on liquids for 2 days and gradually start on solids Friday.

I can't remember, I can seem to get fluids down ok, just a little slower. Is this due to swelling? Also I am having some hiccups! FUN!

I too just had a fill...like 3 hours ago. I tried to drink a Protein shake and just minutes later it came up. Too tight? Or just swelling? Call doc now? Or wait til tomorrow and see how I feel?

I haven't had a fill before where I actually felt tight, so this is new to me. Any experienced bandsters....please advise.

I answered my own question. After the fourth time I PB'd my own saliva, I called the doctor. I went and had .5 cc taken out. Much better.

Yes, you're still swollen. If you can't keep things down, then you should get a slight unfill. If you're able to keep fluids down, ride it out and it gets looser as the swelling goes down.

I just had another slight fill 3 hrs ago. I'm drinking a Protein shake, and it's taken about 30 mins and I'm still not quite done with it.
