I got a fill yesterday morning, 1cc. Afterwards I could only eat a couple of tiny bites of lunch, then got hiccups that lasted nearly an hour. Tried to drink a couple sips of water, more hiccups off and on for the rest of the afternoon. For dinner I managed to drink half an adkins shake then had several hours of off and on hiccups and felt miserably full for at least 3 hours. This morning seems a little better, I drank about 8oz of coffee and had no hiccups. About 1 hour later I slowly ate about half a carbwell protein snack bar. Only got a couple of hiccups, but feel miserably full again. Should I go for an unfill or is this just some swelling that will go down??

Most Doctors will tell you that after you have a fill you should be on liquids for 24 hours.

What Kelly said. It's a very good idea to not test your fill until it's had a chance to "settle" in. Your body is being stressed and I'm not at all surprised you're having hiccups and so forth if you're eating on the same day.

TAKE IT SLOW!! This may be a new level of restriction for you. I remember my first fill as making me feel something like I did right after surgery. It's impossible to judge the rightness of a fill until at least several days have gone by; as long as you can drink liquids for the first couple of days you wouldn't be considered "too tight" right off the bat.

Good luck, and welcome to the world of restriction!

OK, I will wait a few days. I just didn't expect to have trouble with water!!!

Might be better to stay on liquids today and introduce solids on Friday. My Doc as well has me on liquids for 48 hrs. Day of and day after.

At this point I can't ever imagine wanting to eat food again! I haven't dared to take my blood pressure meds. No way I can wash it down!

Blossom, you need to take your meds! You can dissolve them in a large spoon of water first, if you're unable to take pills right now.

But, Marie! I don't think I can swallow a large spoon of water. It's just gonna have to wait till I can swallow that much!

Sip, sip, sip it.
