About every three months (he can't believe I haven't needed a fill, lol) but it isn't set in stone so if I need to cancel it or change it it isn't a problem. He did say that, maybe, six months or so after the next visit...

My fill level needs have changed so much - the last fill was unnecessary and I had to unfills which took me back to my previous level. My doc says to call for an appointment when I think I need to see him.

I just go when I need a fill or if there was a problem. I've not been since my unfill in June. Although I may get another unfill right before my c-section. I'm afraid that I will have swelling and have trouble eating and taking pain pills. At the same time I like the level of restriction I have and I hate to mess with it. I'm so wishy washy lol. Amy

I go every month if I need a fill or every 3 months if my restriction if fine, I pretty much go when I need to but he doesn't want me to go more than 3 months between visits. Marcia
