Is this normal?

Hello all,

I just had my first fill yesterday. Pretty much uneventful...I did freak a little at the size of the ice pick he stuch in my belly though.

Anyway....today I noticed that the area that he did the fill on is a little puffy (not super swollen though) and it has a bit of a pink color to it. Is this normal? I'm not sore...

Still on liquids today...so it's hard to tell if this fill had any effect on me yet.

Patiently awaiting your wisdom....

    Totally normal. I always get a little bruised and swollen when I have fills. I always get poked about ten times because my port is hard to access. But, each little poke gets a little swollen and pink.

    Contrats on your first fill!
