2nd fill today and heartburn/reflux..

Last month I got my first fill of 1 cc which brought me to 4 cc's total. For the first 5 or 6 days afterwards I had a lot of heartburn and reflux and then it went away. I didn't have it every time I ate, just sporadically throughout the day.

Now today I had 1 more cc added and I've got reflux and heartburn again. It's mild but it's definitely there. I'm on liquids for the next 24 hours. Should I just assume that for me it's normal to have reflux for a few days after a fill or what?

I drank Water at my appointment with no problem and I'm having no problem swallowing or keeping down liquids.

You probably have some swelling from the fill. It should subside in a few days. If it doesn't, I would call your doc. and let them know what's going on. Best wishes

I have the worst reflux after fills... I usually just take 2 zantac 75's and it helps it alot!

So how many fills have you had so far? Do you get the reflux every time?

It's annoying to me but since it's happened each time I'm guessing it's just a normal side effect, right?

Oh thank you girl! That is good to know! I just got a fill increase of .5 which brought me to 4cc. I have heartburn so bad right now and I have only had Water... Just a few sips.... I am going to try the Zantac 75. I appreciate that!
