I got a fill about 3 weeks ago. He put in .5 cc's which should have put me at 7 cc's total. Normally at 7 cc's I can't eat bread or chicken and my portions get much smaller. Normally after a fill I also have swelling for 10-14 days where I have to stay on liquids.
This last time though my swelling only lasted a few hours and I can still eat anything I want and I'm hungry all the time. Is it possible he missed my port? The PA is the one who did my fill. If he didn't miss my port than is it possible I have a leak? I go back next week I'm assuming he can pull all the Fluid out to measure it, he always does.
Is it possible I have a full 7 cc's and it's just not working the same for me?
Any thoughts?
