First Fill Freaking Out



Recommended Posts

Had my first fill last night at 8:30 pm.. Doctor told me liquids in the am and you can have lunch at 12 or 1..Had coffee this morning that went fine, had a spoonfull of yogurt like 20 minutes ago and im having the worst shoulder pain EVER...Im freaking out the pain is sharp and intense...How long should i wait for it to go away?? I know it was the yogurt I can feel it sitting there...Please help..Thanks

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 tolerate solids.

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.

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
