I got a 1/2 cc fill on Monday the 27th, I believe total that is 1 1/2 . Well my surgeon told me that I could go back to solids the next day. Absurd!!! As she will filling me I told her how slow the water was going down but that's what she wanted for me. I have had very slow results due to not exercising, my fault I admit. It's hard with kids and work and kids being in 5 different activities. Anyways I have not attempted solids and I won't cuz I am stil having a hard time tolerating fluids, soup and protein shakes. Do you get swollen after a fill usually?

I got a .5 cc fill today and im hoping for some restriction but the Water went down fine. i have heard you can get some swelling from a fill that is why my doc says liquads for 2 days and mushy on the 3rd!!

Hope this helps

yes, I had a .4 fill 3 weeks ago and it was too much. I got swollen and couldn't even tolerate soup. I had all of the .4 removed and yesterdya went back and she gave me .25. This time I am doing liquids for 2 days and then soft foods. I am on day 2 of the 5 day pouch test. Thought with getting the fill it would be a good time to do it.

normal to have some swelling. Most doctors require a day or two of liquids and thne back to soft/mushies for a day or two, after a fill. I'm surprised the doc said solids were okay.

hey Holly Dolly....tell me about the 5day pouch test. I've missed this somewhere in my reading/discussions.

Thanks.
