First fill scheduled--next MONTH!

Thread Starter  

Argh. I've been so busy with a new job and all that I completely spaced on having a 6-week postop checkup. So it wasn't until more than 8 weeks later that I went in, and got clearance to schedule my first fill. Then I did the phone-tag dance with the office for three days, and by the time I connected with someone it was a week later.

Finally I have my fill scheduled...on NOVEMBER 29!! Argh. It will be all I can do to maintain until then, but will have to face Thanksgiving with no restriction!! Oh boy.

Hey Alex. I'm sorry to hear about your fill delay. Maybe they will have a cancellation and be able to get you in sooner. I hope everything else is going well. Are you finding this re-banding to be just like the first time around or is it a whole new ball game?

Hey Alex,

That wait is a bummer but the weight is even more of one! Just remember that over the holiday. You've been here before so just remember to make good choices. Good luck!
