About a month ago I went in for either a fill or not one at all, and they ended up taking some out. I was having major sliming problems almost every day for lunch. I literally had to carry a spit cup around for the first 30 minutes to 1 hour after lunch. It was that bad!!:smile: So this last Monday I went in for a fill. The dtr. is a one-man-show so his nurse practitioner does fills also. She said "Ok, I'll put the .05 back in then." That's when I told her that my card that they write on for me to keep track on said -.25. So did the dtr write it down wrong in my chart or did his assistant write it down wrong on my card? She went ahead and put the +.25 back in. She wanted me to take big gulps of water before I left, I didn't have any problems. Usually I dont though, sometimes it's not until 1-2 weeks before it feels like I have a restriction. So tonite is my first real food night, and I'm very tentative about the possiblity of real food. (my dtr wants people to eat soft foods for 48 hours after a fill.) I know I've just got to go slow and chew, chew ,chew. Small bites and rest in between my bites. I'm just leary, you hate to feel bad. I know if I just slow it down and relax I will be fine. Thanks for listening.:thumbup: Susan

It is so strange how this works. With restriction sometimes I feel like it is too much trouble to eat but I am trying to hang in there. It sounds like you have a solid plan so stick with it.
