First Fill Today = Nervous

I go for my first fill in less than 2 hours from now and I'm really nervous. I am afraid it will hurt and I'm afraid she wont be able to find my port.

I guess I need to have faith in my surgeon and PA and quit the worrying but it's human nature.

Guess I'll let you all know how it goes later.

Wish me luck.....

It will pinch a bit, but it is not bad. When I went in for my first fill I was so nervous between that and a senstive vagus nerve I passed out. I have had 3 now and it is no biggie. It pinches a bit but no more than a bee sting.

I hate the same issue and ended up passing out. Have you passed out every time?

No, I only passed out the first time. After the 1st time the doctor pushed the fluid in more slowly as to not agrivate the nerve.

Just got back from the fill. Lost 2 more pounds so at least I didn't gain! Got 2cc's in my band and she's pleased with my progress . Wasn't bad at all. Don't know why I got myself so worked up.
