It'll go fine. I didn't even feel anything, I was in and out. Remember to stick with liquids afterwards. Good luck!!

Honestly speaking getting a fill was the easiest part of the entire journey. I was expecting something painful, but I barely felt a thing! It's easy for me to say calm down, but really there isn't much to it. It took all of 3 mins, if that!

I just had my first fill last week and I was super nervous. It went very well... no pain or discomfort. I had a 1.5 cc added t my band and I do feel much more full after eating.
Remember to follow the dr directions afterwards and chew, chew, chew because you will be tighter than you were before.

Good luck today!

I think it's natural to be nervous about the unknown.  I was too.  But it was very easy.  At first I used the numbing shot.  Then I realized you are gonna feel 1 slight sting either way.  So now I just let them fill.
