My first fill!!!
I have had 3. The first one hurt a bit- no more than my insulin shots. The second one hurt more, but not really painful- more of an ouch! The last one really didn't hurt at all. Don't be afraid, my experience with other people's pain & my own is that your perception of pain increases with your anxiety level.
i'VE HAD a few fills and for one of them they froze the port site. Ask them to freeze it if you are really scared. but lets face it, freezing is a needle too !! LOL My last one hurt but the radiologist told me it's because she entered through my scar which is thicker and tougher skin. otherwise it doesn't hurt much. don't be scared, really.
