  1. Hi all. Its been a while for me. I have a question? had anyone had any pain in there port area? I have been having sharp pain on my left, usually after I eat. The doctor did an ultrasoud and found nothing wrong. ??? anyone had this problem?:biggrin:
  2. my port also hurts. My surgery date was july 20th. so I cannot be any help as to if it is normal. So I would like some info also. I go to my doctor next week for my first fill, I will ask him then and get back to you if no one else does.
  3. Hello everyone. I was banded on July 20th. doing pretty well but I still have some pain in the main incision area. (where the port is) is this normal. I am also having diaherra (spelling?) about once a week. I think this is from the 1/2 of the decafe late I had the other day. is anyone else finding that they are having reactions to milk? ( I know I am not supposed to be having milk.. it is hard because I used to drink it everyday). Thanks

  10. thanks.. It has taken me about 7 months to decide to have the lap band. I am very excited and nervous. I went to my first support group last week and loved it. my first visit (June 7th)with the surgeon went well and the date of my surgery isn't until July 20th. the wait is long but worth it.
  11. :clap2:hi all! I just want to say thanks for all the help in deciding to have the lap band. any advice before I go under the knife?
