I had my second fill today (I'm a patient of Dr. Ren at NYU), and it went well. I've been very, very hungry for the past couple of weeks, so this came in the nick of time! Ann (the PA), was wonderful. She first removed my last (and first) fill, and all 3cc came out (which she said was unusual, but good). She then went on to give me 5 cc total.
I went and drank some Water, but after a few sips it was apparent that the water wasn't going down quite right. She then removed 1/2cc, and I felt fine. Amazing what a difference such a seemingly small amount can make!
I have another appointment in three weeks. Hopefully, I will see some progress on the scale between now and then.
