Follow Up w/ Corinne
So I spoke with Corinne yesterday (my nurse practitioner who does my fils), she was so sweet and very concerned about my ER endeavor this past weekend. She said that when things like this happen, she prefers to see her patients every 2-3 weeks rather than every 4-6 weeks. That way it doesn't take as long to fill up. I am totally up for that but I will definetly be getting less fills. Like I said in previous posts, I think I was way too agressive which I of coruse wouldn't admit then. Much like others, I thought the bigger the fill the better but now I know that is just not the case because look what happened =(. Of course Corinne would have to think these amounts would be okay but I was thinking 1.5cc, 1.5cc, 1c, and than just .5cc from there on out as far as the fill schdule would go. I have appointments on Nov. 4th, Nov. 20th, and Dec. 4th so far. After the Dec. 4th appointment that should leave me at 5cc and then I was thinking to get .5cc before christmas. I don't know I am just thinking outloud at this point lol like I said Corinne would have to be cool with all this.

I honestly think your Doc was too aggressive with your fills. I mean you were only banded in June and already you have more than I do and I was banded before you. That said, you made a great decision which is to go slower. Just take each appointment on its face value and decide how much want at a time rather than saying "Oh, I will get .5ccs this appt. and 1cc at this one. Might be the way to go.
How gorgeous you are. The little vlog up top absolutely rocks. Love your voice and what a great idea to intro your blog like that. Smart girl!!
aww aren't you sweet!!!!! I'm glad you like it I was afraid it would be dorky lol! Is the sound off from my lips because when I recorded it it wasn't and them when I uploaded it it was and I was just wondering if other people saw it that way too!!?
I totally agree with you about the fills! But honestly I dont think it was my doctor I think it was me! I was telling her what I thought was needed to be heard to get more of a fill because I thought the bigger the better which I know now is not the case!!!
The whole fill saga and the quest for 'ideal restriction' is a real battle!! I had really good restriction until I went on an o/s holiday back in June and had quite a bit taken out and it has taken me all this time to get back to the same place! It's been a real nightmare, I got overfilled at one point and they took even more out and then I had to bascially start again....it can be very frustrating! I have appointments booked in for every 2 weeks and if I don't feel I need it, I just cancel it. Only you can know what is best for you, but for what it's worth, my advice is....slow and steady wins the race!!! :)
