Oh Morgan1660, why do you think that you passed out? Tell us more about the details. I get mine on July 17th so I would really like to know what it was that you think made you pass out!

[morgan1660]

:sun_smiley:well, yes i did pass out. luckly i was setting down. we are not sure why but we think its the numbing meds he interested me with. but he said it gets easier as the more fills i have. i have a low tolerance for pain meds. plus the presser. but after it was all over i was fine. dr said that just about every one he fills the first time passes out.

Oh, no, this is the first time I have heard this about passing out. Really? I will have to put that on my list of things to look out for.

Now how do you feel? Do you feel more restricted than when you went in? Some people have a lot of problems afterward.

[morgan1660]

well to be honest, not really. i can tell when i eat. but no pain or tightness. i have heard some fell the tightness. but i dont. im starting back on solids again so it might be able to tell then. losing slowly but dr says that's normal. passing out, well a lot of people do but alot dont so its just the person. good luck. and im here if you want to talk.

I am glad to hear that you are alright. Passing out is not fun. I just on Tuesday and I have lost already 5 pounds. Take your time with re-eating solid foods, I am still nervous about that. I can tell that I have had a fill even water fills me up FAST. Hang in there!!

Well, Morgan, since we're friends, I'll tell you that your passing out made me chuckle. And that makes me embarrassed for myself !!! Sorry !!! I just never heard of that before, and wasn't expecting to hear it. But I know it's not funny, you poor thing, and I so hope it doesn't happen to you again. Now, please get over your embarrassment ,,, I'm sure it was no big deal. As they say, $hit happens !! Judy

[morgan1660]

yes things do happen. i have a low tolerance for pain meds. :ohwell: thats what the dr thinks thats what done it. oh life goes on and i pray the next time want be that way.

I am sorry to hear about you passing out. I have not heard of that before however as we know everyone reacts differently to things. best of luck with fills to come. I know that I did not have any issues with passing out however I had pain.. lol so i guess u decide which is better. best of luck
