First Fill Today
Posted 06-17-2009 at 08:22 PM by EileenMary
I went this am for the barium swallow and then to my doctor's office for my first fill. It was alittle uncomfortable for about 10 seconds. My daughter Amanda went with me and thought it was cool to watch. She is 19 and eats very healthy (I think due to watching a Mom struggle her whole life with the issue of weight) and weighs 110 lbs. He injected 1.75cc into my port. I am sore today in that area. I am now on a liquid diet for 3 days and he says to come back in a month. He will not see me sooner unless it is an emergency. The whole thing today was pretty easy, I am just soooo hungry. I hope that I will feel the restriction. Waiting to see.......

Hi Eileen, I'm understand how you feel, I had my first fill on monday 15th, and I have been so straving... At least your doctor put you on liquids for 3 days, mine put me on for a week, and I'm about to die.... I have lost 5lbs since Monday, but due to straving...LOL... My doctor told me to come back on August 24th for my next fill, but if I don't feel any restriction once I start eating I'll go back sometime in July,, but with having to be on this liquid diet for a week, I dont know if I want to go back earlier.... Hope everything works out for you.Posted 06-18-2009 at 07:42 AM by tyhelms
