How Long After Fill

Hello!

I had my 1st fill on 4/27. My question is: How long does the soreness around the port area last after fills?

It's true what I've read, you don't really feel a whole lot of restriction with your 1st fill. But I'm satisfied with my results :thumbup:

    I think it depends significantly on how good the person doing the fill is. When my doctor does it, I'm fine -- no soreness at all. BUT, the one time I had her nurse do it, I was sore for a week and was worried that he messed up my port. I now privately call him "Nurse Roughstuff" and refuse to let anyone other than my doctor do the fill.
