I was just there and there is one under the sink. The hotel is amazing and the beds are comfy!!! Happy I stayed there

Mine is all healed up!! You can barely tell where they had to reopen it. Did they try and drain yours or were you not at that point? I hope yours heals up too! It is just an odd feeling and it is very awkward worse then when I had the port in!

Read "weird complication after surgery" for my crazy story with my port incision.

I went to a surgeon here yesterday and he said it can happen because of how hard they have to work to get the port out. He said everything looks great on my CT, I'm glad I found a surgeon here that is willing to see me at anytime

The more I think about it the more it makes sense. I went to Dr Alanza did my surgery. It's just one of things that's happens I'm just happy I didn't have worse things happen.

I had my revision from band to sleeve on June 4th in Mexico. I started to have an odd feeling where the port used to be I just thought phantom pain no big deal. Then I noticed on the 15th that my incision felt weird, I had a co-worker feel it and I said man I am going to have a lot of scar tissue she couldn't believe how wide the scar tissue felt. It was almost 3 inches wide and went the length of the insicion. RThe next morning I got out of the shower and I had a pinhole in my incision that was gushing blood and wouldn't stop. I was filling up a 2x2 gauze pad in 2 minutes. I went to a clinic still bleeding like a stuck pig and the PA I seen was thrown for a loop. I was bleeding the color of iodine just dark as could be. She called their bariatric surgeon and he wasn't sure what was going on so they sent me to get a CT scan. Where my port had been had pooled with blood and had made a canal to the surface and pushed it's way out. Luckily it pushed it's way out and not in and caused an infection. The PA ended up cutting a larger hole in the incision and pushing all that "old blood" out. I guess when it turns that dark it's old blood, odd. The PA pushed out 10cc's she figured I had already leaked out 4cc, she then packed the hole with what looks like a shoe lace, 2 feet was packed in there. Twice a day 1 pull out 2 inches and cut it off. On weds I go see the surgeon for a check up and to see why this happened. Has anyone else had this happen to them or heard of this happening??

My surgery went great! No worries about safety and they treat you great! They were there for everything and anything I could ask for

I had my revision done on Saturday June 4 and surprise when I came out I had a nose drain to keep my stomach dry. Anyone else have the dreaded drain?

So excited to get my band out and get he sleeve. This thing has been a nightmare so ready to be happy!! Anyone going to Dr Almanza the weekend if June 4th??

Nioxin is a great product to help with Hair loss and there is a new product by the men's line Crew but women are only to use the vials that you put directly on the scalp don't use Shampoo or conditioner per the vendor rep
