I SURVIVED MY FIRST FILL!!!!!:cursing:

for those of you wondering how it feels and if it hurts this is my story:

i went in laid down (my 5 YO son came with me) doc came in and spent the majority of his time trying to find the darn thing!!!! once he did he put in the needle and have you ever had a MMR shot???? thats what it feels like.

he got the nenedle in and then lost the port again ugh the needle grazed the port and scraped which sent my blood curdling from the sound.

he took out what was in and then put that plus 2 cc;s more in for a total of 5cc's.

i drank and feel fine.

i am on fluids for 2 days including today then back to mushies for 2 days and then on to reg food. i really havent gone to reg food bc the mushies have been o for me for now. should i have the desire for real food i will prob try that the end of the week.

hope this has helped anyone who is looking for how it feels and if not well thanks for reading!!!:huh2:

We were told not to stick with the mushies because for the most part they are high calorie/low nutrient foods, and that it was important to move on to solids like chicken and fish....?

Anyway thanks for your post!

I had asked my doc about a low profile port and bless him very tactfully he said...right now, Rebecca, it will be hard for me to even find the port. But I promise when you lose enough that the old one sticks out, I will gladly put a smaller one in for you! :cursing:

LOL

thanks for the tip on the mushies.....

this liquid is killing me for some reason this time. but i can do this.

not like i have to do liquid for the rest of my life!!!
