It is understanding that you will be nervous but it will be ok.  When I first started, my dr would numb the site but now he dont even bother which mean 1 stick instead of two...I will caution you..DONT LOOK AT THAT NEEDLE, it is big but really it does not hurt very much and I am so not into needle.

I was a week late to get mine, which was yesterday. it just felt like a  regular sting from a shot in your arm  only it was in your tummy. I could also feel a actual small tug on my stomach when he did it. It didnt hurt or anything but it felt weird. I got 5 cc and i could hardly eat this morning. It was great!

Easy peasey... you will do fine!! It is a thin needle so it doesn't hurt. My Dr doesn't use any numbing... honestly that stings more than the Huber needle.

Hi. I see you were also banded by Dr. Feiz. I had surgery 2/8/11. How has everything been so far? How did the fill go? Did he do it? Thanks in advance :-)

Waiting to hear how it went, Renee!  It was over for me before it thought it had even begun!

Glad it went so well for you. Had my first fill yesterday, 3.8cc's. Full liquids today and mushies tomorrow.  My stomach was really growling till I took a tip frpm someone on OH and put 2 scoops of protein powder instead of one in my protein shake.  Did the trick.  May stay on full liquids till supper tomorrow.  It worked so well today.
