My experience was also horrifying. I went in for my 1st fill and I was 6 weeks Post-Op. I had already lost 24 lbs. Doctor started to poke me several times with the needles. He was not successful in finding the port. What is worse he does not even have an machine to do an xray or flouroscopy of stomach to find my port area. My stomach was all severly bruised. I was then told my his office staff that I would have to go to the hospital to get the 1st fill along with my doctor. My doctor failed to mention that he did not have all the proper equipment to do fills. Does anyone know if a doctor can do a fill with just feeling the port.
