I got my second fill today went from 2.5 cc to 5 cc and anything I eat is causing me horrible chest pain is this normal or should I call my doctor ? What type of foods should I be eating now ? Today is my second day feeling this tightness in my chest .

You should be on liquids for two days after a fill. Swelling occurs naturally after the stomach has been manipulated. Then start out eating very small and listen to your body and pay attention to when you feel full and stop eating.

My doc recommends full.fluids first day after a fill, soft mushy 2nd day. Also, 2.5 to 5 seems pretty aggressive? Usually I get only a few cc at a time

Call your dr and check. All drs have different guidelines for eating after a fill but you may be a little tight.

Every doctor is different, but most recommend liquids for the first day after a fill at minimum. You have probably irritated your stomach, which is likely already swollen from the fill, so now anything you eat is giving you problems.

Go on only liquids for the next 24 hours to let your stomach calm and the swelling subside. Then, go to soft foods for 24 hours, then ease your way back into normal food very carefully.

When you do go back on normal food, be sure to take very small bites, chew it until much, and pause between bites. Every time you get a fill will be a learning experience with the band so be patient and go slow.

Thanks every one for the helpful advice I have been taking it easy and chewing very good and up to now have been in pain yet
