Has anyone ever had their port move? I've had my band for over 2 years and after getting really sick a few days ago, i can feel my port right above my belly button-about 4 inches lower than it was and at least 2 inches over to the right. I called my doctor and his office informed me that that was not possible but they are going to see me next week in the office. My stomach is sore & i can only handle liquids and soft food for now. Anyone ever hear of something like this? Thanks!

My portion sizes are pretty small & stay the same day to day. It also happens with liquids but again only a few times a month. It's just annoying because the doctors all blame the other doctors saying it's their issue....thanks for the reply though!

That is when it usually happens for me too...i know it's not that im eating to much or to fast & if it is really band, i even get the pain with liquid. Has your Dr. given you any ideas how it relates to your cycle?

I'm new to this site hoping to maybe find some answeres. I was banded about 2 years ago without any issues. I'm down about 70 lbs and for the most part am very happy! I keep having bouts with right side flank pain & my doctor has no answeres. My gallbladder was taken out about a year after my band was put in, and my append. was taken out 25 years ago. My band dr sent me to a kidney doctor & they found nothing. I know it is band related because the pain will start immediatly after i eat...if i vomit, the pain stops immediatly. This only happens about 4-5 days a month. Has anyone had any similar experiences? Thanks for the info.....
