How many weeks after surgery was your 1st fill???

I got my first fill 2 weeks after surgery. And my second two weeks after that. Banded 8-7-12

I had my surgery 8/22/12...my first fill is on 9/27! I'm anxious too!

It will be just fine! I was super anxious the first time too, and was amazed at how simple it really is.

Banded August 13th, Hoping for a fill in 2 weeks on September 28th. Didn't feel hungry till about 2 weeks ago, but now can't wait!

I was banded on the 21st and my doctor won't fill me until oct 10th - this period is certainly more difficult than expected. Any tips?

I got banded on sept.6,2012 I'm worried about my first fill ! Does it hurt??

mine was 6 weeks after surgery

It didn't hurt. I was nervous about that, too. My surgeon put some kind of numbing cream on the skin before he filled. I don't think it would have hurt even if he hadn't used the numbing cream.

That's good to know!! Thanks!

I get my first fill this Wednesday and I am kinda scared! I was banded July 31st

I got my lapband on 8/28/12 doctor said I will have my first fill 6wks after my surgery. That will be sometime in October.

I was banded 9/4 and got my 1st fill today, so its been about 3 weeks. I got 5ccs put in with no problem, I didn't feel anything, not even the needle.

Also have an appt for 4 weeks later to get another fill...

I get fills every 2 weeks. I'm wondering if that's too fast? I like it though.
