Hello everyone today is my 2nd fill dr only put 1cc, first fill was only 3cc, anyway when doc doing my fill its a bad feeling pain pain!!!! I honestly do not even want to get a fill anymore but i had to get a fill today because i am getting hungry every 2 hours.. Anyone experienceing bad fills with needle?

I have never had any twinges of pain because my doctor gives me a shot of lydocane before filling me. I have also only had the fills/unfills with the barium and xray thing (the real name has totally escaped me)

i also get a shot of lidocaine to numb the area before the actual fill needle is inserted.

i wouldnt say it feels good...but it isnt too painful for me. the only thing is its a little sore the rest of the day like a bruise.

i also got 3cc my first fill. and 1 cc my second fill. the doc said that for the Realize band that is the recommended schedule. some doctors like to be more aggressive--but if you are more aggressive you have a bigger risk of complications.
