Just curious!

My port is directly under my left breast over to the right away from my ribs. I thought this was where the dr repaired my hernia! I thought it would be more near my belly button?

I have my 1st fill on 3/30. Im down 33 lbs. My port is located under my left breast (had a hernia repair in the same location) not sure why thats where he decided to put my port.

For full liquids, my dr recommends: sugar free pudding Creamy Soups Grits Mashed pototoes Fruit juices Frozen yogurt or sorbet Protein shakes Hope this helps!

Me too (fill on the 30th)

I had my 1 week post op appt with my dr on friday. Ive lost 20 lbs and started on full liquids. I see him again on march 30th for my 2nd fill. So far so good. Sharon

Well going to see my drs assistant. He usually sees dr lords patients for their 1 week follow up appt. I know ive lost some weight (about 20 r so pounds) Hope to be able to move up to full liquids today Wish me luck folks

Mytimetoshine & mandagay; I guess the old sayin is true. Everyone is different and they,recover differently too. I to experience the only being able to sleep in one position and if I stand or walk too much it begins to hurt worse

my surgery was a week ago today. I am still not 100 percent better. hernia repair site is still very sore. how many of you are in the same boat as me? Sharon

Good luck Kim. I hope everything goes smoothly for you. BBB Sharon
