Hello all,

I'm new here..

I've had my surgery done about two months ago- at the moment I have 8 cc filled and still do not feel any restriction.

I've had my last fill a week ago and was wondering if it is safe to have another one tommorow?

I can go see my doctor tommorow but don't want to go through the trouble if it is not safe to have another fill so soon.

I would really appriciate any answers:)

Thanks!

Your doc will only give you one if he/ she feels its ok. Mune, however, will only fill about every 4-6 weeks.

This is a question that needs to be answered by your surgeon...and their decision will be based on several factors, such as the amount of weight you have recently lost, how rapidly after a meal you are feeling hunger, and if you are still able to tolerate meat. This is my surgeon's criteria.

My surgeon will not do a fill sooner than every 6 weeks...no exceptions.

Hi Amber, I have not had a fill however, from reading through the threads about fills I have heard many people post that sometimes after a fill it can take a little while to kick in, sometimes even a few weeks. Maybe you should give it some time before considering, the worst you want to do is have an over fill, I heard that is the worst feeling ever!

Wish I could be more helpful...

My surgeon told me today on my first fill, every 6 weeks, no sooner.

I have appointments once a month to check my progress and determine whether a fill is necessary.

I go monthly, but my doctor will fill as soon as two weeks. (depending of course!!)
