hey all. i was banded on 7-23-08 and i've had pain about 1 inch below my port ever since surgery it's not every day, but feels like a pulling stitch. i have the realize band and its suppose to be stapled. i don't think it is the port ive had 2 fills and said something to the anrp. that did the fill she said that it was not anything they did in surgery?

Hey, i've had the same pain, right after surgery (07-23-08) it's 1 inch below my port it feels like you are pulling a stich.... It's off and on sharp pain?:thumbup:
