Unfill or ride it out?

jacbro

Hey there guys, just had another fill today and he decided to be a little agressive as I still havent lost any weight after 9 months.

Put another 1ml in making total of 6.5ml, got home and cant even drink water. Tried to drink warm tea and had really bad pains like something was stuck then it came back up again.

He said to come back if I needed adjustment (he is only in town today and tomorrow) but I know from experience that my last fill (which was not this tight) wore off after a couple of weeks.

Do you think I should go back or will it settle down as the hours go on?

Thanks

I hate to say it but you probably need an unfill. I tried to ride mine out and have been paying for it for almost a month. If you get too dehydrated to get even tighter.

Hmmmm, you got a 1ml fill (he was being "a little aggressive")
it's never felt this tight before,
it took a while for it to loosen up the last time when it felt a bit tight,
you can't drink water,
you can't even keep down warm tea,
and you are asking if you need an unfill???????

Yep, I think so.

Glad to hear it's better jacbro. I was thinking too maybe .5 removed would make you just right. :clap2:

I am glad you are feeling better it is amazing how even as little as .1 cc can be the difference between too tight and your sweet spot, my suggestion is to do your fills small at a time, that is if you don't have to pay for them. I am a self pay and want to get the maximum for my money but I really paid for it on my second fill. Being too tight is awful!!!

Does your fill dr. not use a flouroscope so he can do a barium swallow after the fill?

My doc uses flouro for my fills and I still got too tight this last fill and had to have an unfill 3 weeks later.
Mine didnt really affect me for over a week.
