7.25 fill

Had a fill today and now at 7.25 cc. the only thing different about this fill is my Dr took all the Fluid out to measure how much I already had then she put it all back in plus a .25. It's all fine. Well except she did have problems finding my port which never happen before. She says it tilted a little. So she was searching and moving that huge needle around under my skin trying to get at my port. I know that is going to be sore later.

My big mistake was after my fill I took a big gulp of coffee and then it feels stuck. What do you call that when you keep burping slime? Well that's me right now. And I am hungry, my tummy is growling.

Dr says" liquids today, soft tomorrow and see me again for another fill. If you have any problems, go to the ER to unfill". Well I feel like I just had an unfill and a fill all at once.

Wow, Did I just complain? Sorry for that. Bottom line, I had a fill and I am fine.

Can you drink?

Almost 4 years now, and I still cannot take big gulps of anything...with or without food....

I've been to the ER for unfills a couple times, it's a pain! The ER docs have no clue how to do it so I always wait hours for a member of the WLS team to come do it. Ironically they don't really know how to do it either because they rarly do it, they just do the surgery! lol it's commical to watch them try, I'm usualy giving instructions. It's normal for your port to tilt a you lose weight, mine is pretty titled. I usually give it a day or two before I go for an unfill if I can't drink. I suggest going during business hours though so your normal doc can do it. GL!
