Fill From Hell



Recommended Posts

I'm almost 1 year post-opt and Monday I went in for a fill. This was my first fill in 7months. I was at around 4.1cc and my Surgeon filled me to around 4.6/4.7cc (I have a 10cc band). Everything was fine and I was doing liquids and yogurt until Wednesday. Wednesday I was having trouble keeping liquids down. Thursday same story. I PB on all liquids and have really bad heartburn/reflux. I called my surgeon and he can see me first thing Saturday morning. I was curious if anyone as experienced delayed irritation and discomfort after a fill.

I did back in November. Doc said I'd 'feel' that fill. Lost ten pounds Thursday until Tuesday! Same, couldn't keep liquids down. Slight u fill and back in my way. And, I didn't regain that ten pounds!

Ice chips and sugar free Popsicles until Saturday!

Thanks, I'm counting down the hours before I can see my doctor. I ended up passing out at work and busting my lip. My boss made me go to the hospital but I'm feeling a lot better after receiving an IV. I guess 2 days without food and just a tiny bit of Water took its toll on me in this heat.

I did on my last fill....my Dr. asked me to stick it out.....I took it easy for a week or two more, liquids and mushie foods, and eventually it subsided....I have been there ever since, over 4 years ago and doing just fine.....

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
