Welcome home Yasmina

Glad you had an good trip. I went today to Toronto for fill #3. Fricken Air Canada- flight was to leave tbay at 10:40(my apt was for 1:30 and then we were flying back at 4:00pm) Well Got to airport and found out flight was delayed till 12:00, had to change coming back flight,a dn call TLBC to say I will be late.. By the time We got into TO and to clinic it was 3:15, I was so mad and flustered, but Nancy was so cool abou it. In and out and back to airport to come home- got into Tbay around 7:45- I am sooo tired. BTW I saw you in the news paper. Cant wait to chat with you.

Cool,

If you have nothing to do Staurday march 31 , come to the Finlandia Hall and see our show. Let me know and I will leave 2 tickets at the door for you.

My first fill is coming up at TLBC. They told me it is a two hour apt.

What should I expect ?

Does it hurt ? Who does it? I had a stitch poking out, what is with that ? I did not even know that I had any stitches !

Hey Yasmina

I would like to be there if I could but have other arrangements that day..As to your fill- my first one Nancy called after I had already booked my plane ticket and asked if we could change the day I told her No, I already booked my ticket, so when i went I met with Maral for 5 minutes asked me how it was going, gave me a booklet on Bandster eating, how to tell if you need a fill, unfill, stuff like that, then I met with Daryl (Nancy -the fill nurse was away) she took my weight, and then gave me a 5cc fill- It didnt hurt, but was uncomfortable- felt pressure(her pushing down trying to access it i guess), I almost passed out!!But really it doesnt hurt- this was just my nerves. Afterwards (usually fill takes about 10 seconds if that- from time they find port, swab it off and inject and put bandaid on) After that I went to waiting room, sat and sipped a bottle of water, then left.

As to the 2 hr seminar- I really dont know cause I didnt get one due to Nancy having other plans, but I have heard others say it doesnt take 2 hrs.

Dont worry they are sooo awsome there.:heh:

Hey Yasmina I had a stitch poking out too but when I went to the Dr's for a follow up they just snip it right off and whatever stitches are in the incision just dissolve. Did you get a Dr. to snip your stitch at the follow up?

Well I never really had a follow up. They called to see how things were going and then a day later I went back to Thunder bay.

They did call me at home to see how things were going. On my way back from Egypt I stopped at the clinic to show them my stitch. They took it out. I do not have my first fill until Tuesday. Very excited about that ! What is so weird is that I can feel it !

My incision pussed for four weeks finally got mad and pulled it out myself. Had to do it in two stages first part one day the second the next day. I went to my doc and he said it was just a stitch and to pull it out if I saw it which I did. Doddie

Because I had an infection , was on two rounds of meds, and soooo badly want this to work, I was stressing seeing this one inch stitch stick out of my body.

We were in cairo at the time and my dance teacher said "oh we should go to a doctor" I had no intension of doing that until It was really recessary. I wasited until I was back in Toronto. I did not even know that iIhad a stitch to come out !
