Ready for first fill tommorrow :) started having issues

I was banded on February 12th , have had no issues. I get my first fill tommorrow . This past Wednesday had my first run in with getting stuck and again last night .. And then just now .. All on food I've been eating on a regular basis. Should I be worried ?

hi.i had a few sticks after my last fill. I found out that after a stuck, with throwing up, it was best to go all liquid again. apparently there could be swelling and it would continue to keep sticking. So I went all liquid for two days, than mushy soft for two days and than solid. It seemed to work. Let your doc know. After a fill I think you have to do liquid only anyway. At least I know I do. Best of luck.

Thanks !! That makes me feel a little better .. I've never really retched or anything but got to the point where I think I am and it's gone down ..I was planning on the softs and clear afterwards so cool .. Glad I'm on the right path :) tyvm

If you are sticking without a fill, you may not want to get one right away. Be sure your surgeon knows about the problems you are having. Getting tighter will not help you learn to eat the right size bites and chew. Make sure you are comfortable with how you are eating. Fills are not the end all. I know a lot of people who have gone over 9 months without a fill and are still losing.
