My center wouldn't give a 3cc at a time but, if you can drink and swallow water still you should be OK.
I had had my band filled to 8.5 at one time.  But, after the first total unfill I was never able to use more than 6.5 and it was too much.  When we get a fill we are also told to go back to shakes for 48 hours, mushies for 48 hours and than soft food for another 48.  After that food as totorated.

If you are having problems, go back to shakes if not forge forward. 

Yes, I could always feel the food/water go down.

BAND REMOVED 9-4-12-fought insurance to get sleeve and won! Sleeved 1/22/13! Five years out and trying to get that last 15 pounds back off.
