I had my 4th fill, I have had a .06, .05.05. .04cc fill yesterday. I have the worst case of heart burn, I can eat warm soup but lost a glass of water today.

am I too tight? its been 5 months since my last fill, and can't remember if it was this bad. any ideas?

I would give it a couple days to see if the problem is due to swelling. I know that for the last couple fills it took around 4-5 days for swelling to go down. I always get a little "acidy" just after a fill. If you are unable to get water or food down then definitely go back right away and if you don't feel better in a few more days then a slight unfill may be needed.

I have had that problem as well and it seems to subside after a few days. I have had to go back in and have some fluid taken out because it didn't resolve. Hopefully it is due to swelling.

I also had the same problem I waited two weeks still could not keep any food down ended up having to take out a lot of fluid, but on the bright side I lost 20 lbs in two weeks and only gained back five after the unfill. Exercise is keeping it off. I go back May first for a refill:-)

I just recently had my fourth fill and it was definitely different from any other fill I had ever had. I thought I was going to have to request an unfill, but after a week or so...it subsided and wasn't as tight.
