Hi, I just had my first fill a couple of days ago and I was wondering what is normal after a fill. I can get liquids down no prob, and soft food like frozen yogurt, but when I have more than a couple bites of real food, like any breads or lunch meat ect. I have like a tight burning pain in my throught, is this normal? I'm not starving but I dont ever feel "full", Is this how it will be from now on? I think the dr said I had 1.6 fill??? Any imput on what to expect would be greatly appriciated:help:

Not being able to keep liquids down is not good or the norm, I think you need to call your doc.

Kp

Thanks.

Just got off the phone and they told me to try warm liquids because that sometimes helps.

I just made myself some hot tea, so if it doesn't work, I'll have to go back in and get some fill taken out.

I had my 1st fill ~1 week ago. Had the same thing. Pain w/swallowing. Very uncomfortable. I definitly have restriction. I realized I was eatting "too fast" and too big of bite. The norms like breads and dry meats were getting stuck. So now I have to take "bird size" bites and wait like 45 sec before taking another one. The full feeling is there-feels like if I take another bite I will through up. It's a huge learning curve.

Shoot, I'm just glad I'm finally able to keep some of this hot tea down.

It's not all staying down, but about every other sip will.

I'm wondering if I can get the same effect by just heating my gatorade up in the microwave so I don't get dehydrated?
