Fill #4 pain



Recommended Posts

Had surgery on July 1, 2013 I was 240 pounds had my 4th fill today and it was the most pain I have ever had with a fill they found my port but the needle would not go in so they thought my port had Flip over because when she tried to put the needle in it keep hitting something after 5 attempts I told her take the needle out right now it hurts so she did so I waited a couple minutes and we tried it again apparently my port is at an angle so you can't go straight in like some people you have to turn my needle to the side so she said as people lose weight sometimes your port tens to shift

So now I'm at 6.5cc I hope this puts me in my green zone weight today was 220

EeeeOUCH! That does not sound like it was so much fun! Do you always have the same person do the fills for you?

I would not want to have someone poke me all those times and hurt me. I'm glad it all worked out in the end. I hope this fill takes you to green!! I haven't reached that point yet...

      Three months and four days ago... I was in Costa Rica having a life changing surgery! Yesterday we had a followup visit with Dr. Esmeral via video chat and this morning my middle number changed.  I'm down 47lbs and two pants sizes. I can wear a Large tshirt for the first time in like... 14 years! Woot!! Everything is going great. I have zero regrets. I went down to the riverwalk with a friend and walked 2 miles on Monday without even getting fatigued. And no more snoring or chugging pickle juice for crazy leg cramps! I need to go to the gym more... I'm making new shirts next week so that will motivate me. LOL But I'm also just not as TIRED all the time! I have a LONG way to go...but seeing the progress on the scales and in the mirror is a huge motivator!! Thank you all for cheering me on and supporting me!!

      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?
