I had my 1 week post-up visit today and will be returning 8-25 for my 1st fill. I asked the Doctor if he filled small amounts frequently or what and he said he starts at 5cc's. Is this a good fill amount?

5 cc is excellent, my place started at 3 cc and only filled every 6 weeks at 1 cc per fill under 5 cc. So it took me a very hungry 12 wks AFTER my first fill to get where you will be at your first fill. I am happy for you.

That is way more than I got. My first fill was 1.6 cc. Second fill was .6 cc. I would imagine that with a 5 cc fill you will really feel restricted.

my first and only fill so far was 2.5cc and I have lots of restriction. They said that may lessen over time and I would likely need another fill but so far 1 week from fill 1 I am doing fine. Next fills would be between .5cc and 1 cc until I find the sweet spot.
