I had my surgery October 14th and I get my 1st fill tomorrow what should I expect?

Is it going to hurt?

Is there any do's or don'ts I should know about?

If you haven't had your fill yet, don't worry. It was painless for me and so quick. And what a difference that fill has made for me! Go for it!!

Thanks Elgrad.

I've had 2 fills and they did not hurt at all. They gave me instructions to not eat before I go and only drink a little. I usually go late morning, so it has not been a problem. Many Drs do fills different .... mine has me drink water to see how it feels going down, then fills some, then has me drink more water ..... I can feel when the water feels slower going down.

Both fills really helped me with restriction and continued weight loss.

This is how my doctor does fills as well. I go on Nov 18th for my 4th fill. He didn't do a fill when I went in for my 4th....

Thanks Humming Bird, my doctor said not to eat 4hrs before and don't drink 2hrs before. I guess every doctor is diffrent like you said because one of my friends who had the surgery said his doctor said no eating only drink liquids and broth 24hrs before. I want to know which one is the best because I need my band filled good because right now I'm able to eat whatever I want. My doctor told me that I have the smallest band on and its still to big for me I have a lot of room so food will easly go down like I never had a band. Today I'm suppose to get it filled to the max so it will be tight around my stomach. I'm hetting at fill at 6weeks instead of 4 weeks because of this.

I'm mean I'm getting it at 3 weeks instead of 4.
