First fill = headache??



Recommended Posts

I'm 7 weeks post op and had my first fill today. I had 3.5 cc put in at surgery and 1cc added today. Ever since the fill I've had a headache, which liquid tylenol hasn't helped. Could this be fill related or is it just a coincidence (maybe allergies)? Thanks!

I think it may be hunger because I'm definitely hungry! I hate liquids only. My BP was kinda low. Could that cause headaches? I found the liquid Tylenol at CVS pharmacy. It's their brand. Wish I could find grape flavored because this cherry makes me want to throw up!

It hurt a little while she was trying to find the middle of my port with the needle. Only one stick, but a lot of moving around of the needle inside. I felt a little heaviness or pressure in the middle of my chest for a couple hours after the fill. I think that was swelling. After that I felt great. Good luck!

that liquid cherry at cvs is yucky.. tastes like Nyquil or cough Syrup. but that's the only flavor I found.

I hate needles and felt nothing during fill... My dr hands hurt more when she was feeling for port but not bad at all

It's horrible! The first drink takes me breath away and I almost choke. Most of the time I suffer through my headache instead of taking that crap. Why the heck can't tylenol make tiny pills???

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
