Hi, the pain went away after about a week,and I have since had a fill with no problems. The surgeon said I had torn the muscle area by doing to much, as the port is stiched to the muscle I may have ripped the stiches and muscle. I took ibruprofen for about a week, didn't take the pain away but i could function (just) and it disappeared about one week later. It was the worst pain I experienced post op, and probably ever.

Hi, the supradyn is not a complete multi, good for the first few weeks to get down but after that you need a better multi with more nutrients. I have been taking the Swiss Ultravite for women for years and find it to be great, I can tell from my energy levels whether I've forgotten it or not. It does go down, but you can break it in half if neccesary.

thanks for that, at least I know it may be normal. i had myself convinced there was something wrong. Jen

Hi, I was banded 3 weeks ago and over the last few days I have developed severe port pain, like someone stabbing me. this happens every time I use my abdonimals at all, like pulling out a drawer. I am worried the port has flipped, it feels like the stiches are ripping out every time I move. The nurse said to take nurofen and let it heal, but I am still worried. The pain is worse than anything I felt after surgery. I can't believe this is normal, my initial recovery went well, I have been active with no problems til now.The nurse said they won't know if there's a problem until they try to access the port in 3 weeks, just wondering if it can cause worse problems to leave it so long? Anyone had this problem?
