October 6, 200817 yr I got my second fill this morning, 2ml, my first was also 2ml. I barely got the Water down (8 oz.) in 45 minutes (too fast?) and now I still have slight pressure in my chest, nausea, hiccupping and burping. Lots of saliva, too!! Very uncomfortable. I called the office and the doctor is in surgery. Any advise, is this normal?
October 6, 200817 yr I usually feel tight the day of a fill too. I can usually only sip water the day of. Tomorrow you should be able to get liquids down (shakes, broth, water) but you may have to go much more slowly than you have been. If you get reflux and/or you are unable to get fluids down then go back as soon as possible.
October 11, 200817 yr I got my 2nd fill Thursday (10/9) and I was the same way. It took longer for me to get the water down. And when I drink liquids, the first 2 or 3 swallows are slow but it goes better after that. I just tried to eat a scrambled egg and could only get down four bites before I got the tight feeling in my chest and got nauseaus. I'll see how it goes for the rest of the weekend but I might need to go back Monday to get some taken out.
October 11, 200817 yr Author Mine got worse..I couldn't eat or drink for 3 days. I went back Wednesday and some taken out, now I'm fine.
