I had an awesome 1st fill. I sat on the bed, raised my legs up off the bed about 6 inches, Dr. Avara felt where my port was and cleaned a sterile field with my port as my bullseye. He asked me to pull my feet up again and then felt and stuck. I was done in 3 seconds. The hard part was sitting in his office for an hour waiting for him.

I'm sure you'll do great!

CONGRATS ON THE JEANS!!!

I went in to the store yesterday and bought a size 18 jeans. I dont mean a size 18 w, just the regular old size 18.  To some ppl that may not mean alot but to me that means I am back to the size I was over 6 years ago when I first meet my husband!!!!!! So I have joined the club of ppl that can buy clothes in a regular store!! (bearly but who is counting!!) WOO HOO! I am wearing them today and can not be happer! I did get an appt today for my very first fill.  I am a bit worried about it. You hear soo many stories about bad first fills. So anyone that has any good reports please share them with me to help me not be so nervous about it! Thanks

I live in Columbus and frequent Meridian a LOT.  If you find a support group in Meridian, let me know.  We don't have one in Columbus either and I drive 2.5 miles to Birmingham (to my own surgeon's support group).

Happy Halloween Mississippi!!! Hope Everyone has a spooktacular day!
