Tight!!

I had a fill Thursday afternoon. Friday everything seemed ok. I drank liquids to begin with Friday nigh mushy and was fine. Saturday morning I tried my Cereal and it was a really slow go, then lunch of tuna didn't want to go down - not a major stuck, just a little pressure, so I went back to liquids. Sunday morning I did liquids, for lunch I was at my mom's and she fixed some tuna cakes and soft cooked greenbeans- it went fine, just ate slow. Mom sent a tuna cake and some greenbeans home for my dinner and it didn't want to go down at dinner time.

This morning I have drank 2 bottles of Water, 2 cups of coffee, 1 Protein shake and tried to eat about 5 almonds - the almonds went down, but I still had a little pressure.

The doctor said give it another day before coming in to get a slight unfill.

Have any of you had this issue? Did you wait it out or go get an unfil?

Not getting major stuck, just slight pressure when trying to eat solids- yes I am chewing well and taking tiny bites.

Most people I know wait..a week is not that unusual.....should treat it gentle after a fill also...it can be irritated and inflamed from the fill and continued stress will only keep it irritated....promoting you to get a unfil...then a month from now you wish you didn't.....seen this scenario 100 times.....

As long as you are not having trouble getting liquids down I would give yourself time to get use to the fill. Try smaller bits, chewing a little more and waiting a little longer between bits.

You might be at the green zone. But if it is unmanageable then get a small unfill. Only you know what you can manage.

Good luck to you.
