Hi Betty - How did it go?

Hi Betty, How did your fill go? I can definitely feel that something is different and I nursed a protein shake for awhile. I figure I'll do liquids until tomorrow night then some kind of mushy soup in the evening. TTYL, Ramone P.S. It was very nice to meet you!

Hi Ramone, It was good to meet you today. Unfortunately my fill attempt was not successful. He poked me six times and just could not find the spot. So he's making me an appointment with a radiologist to have it done under fluorosope. I guess that's good in a way, but it was very disappointing, esp after waiting 2 hours to see him. He says my port may be flipped. Anyway at least we'll be able to see what's happening, if not tomorrow then early next week. I did like Dr Mitchell though, he seems very nice. I'll let you know how it goes. Betty

Hi Betty, Sorry your fill didn't go as planned. Hopefully next week it will all get straightened out and you'll be able to get your fill. Hang in there. Rhonda

Hi Betty, That really sucks, but like you said at least with the flouro you can know for sure what's going on. Did Dr. Mitchell indicate what would happen if the port was flipped? (ie. Would he fix it, etc?). I'm sure everything will be fine. TTYL, Ramone

Hi Ramone and Rhonda, Yes, I was looking forward to feeling more restriction again, but I hope it will happen soon. I asked Dr Mitchell what happens if it's flipped and he said then he would have to do surgery to fix it. So I'm hoping it is just buried in a difficult spot and when I lose more weight it will be more accessible. He said the fluoro should be early next week. I'll let you know how it goes. Ramone, how has your fill been so far? Rhonda are you feeling better now and able to eat more normally? Hope all is going well. Take care Betty
