Fill Too Tight or just swellling?

I got my third fill yesterday and I am not sure if I am too tight or if its just swelling. I am burping constantly and still feel uncomortable right where the band is. I feel better today than yesterday, but didn't know if I should be feeling this way at all. On the plus side, I am not hungry at all (finally) and I drank a muscle milk light and it went down fine, just burped a lot (but I have been burping since I got the fill). Although I had to drink it really slow. I don't want to get an unfill, if it's just swelling, but then again, It's a holiday weekend, and I don't want there to be a problem and not be able to get in to see the doctor. I havent felt this kind of restriction before, which I kind of like, but I hate the uncomfortableness and tightness that I am feeling right now. It has gotten better from yesterday, at least there was some improvement. I don't want to mess it up if this is my sweet spot but just not giving it time to settle. you know?

My advice is since it's getting better, I would wait out the weekend. Stick to liquids if you are feeling really tight. Call Tue. morning if your not better. Best wishes.

I agree with vlp. At least you can get Protein shakes in..slowly. If you couldn't do that then I would say go get an unfill immediately but you can survive a weekend on shakes for sure.

Best wishes!
