    If yoghurt won't go down, you might be too tight. Or, you might have just swelled in response to the fill. I'd go back to full liquids for another day, and then call the clinic back, if you can't to

Fills done right don't hurt at all. Don't worry.

My dr says full liquids only for 48 hours after a fill. Try waiting longer next time before trying to eat.

Didn't hurt! Just the pinch and I had to get up and do the X-ray with the needle still on me that was weird but not painful! I'm feeling better today! Had some soup and half a toast it went down fine just had to eat slowly and got full with half a cup!! Thanks for replying
