Hi everyone,

I have my first fill tomorrow. I was wondering what can I expect and a couple of days after? Thank you.

Depends on a lot of things...my surgeon only does small fills so my first one was a big non-event; I got 1.5 cc in a 14 cc band. When I started to complain he very kindly and patiently explained to me why he wanted to take it slow, and darn it, I agreed with him LOL I had a little pain the first time because my port had tilted slightly. It wasn't bad at all. I was supposed to do liquids for 24 hours, then mushies, then soft, then regular food day four. Subsequent fills 2 and 3 have been fast and easy....now that he knows my port is tilted it's fast and totally pain free.

Mine have all been quick and painless.

I can eat the same day....my doctor just asks that you don't go out of town for two weeks.
