I think my full signal is hiccups! Anyone else have this one? And.. the gurgling has been really obnoxious lately!

I had a flipped port as well. I had the revision, which my surgeon did for free, and he filled me while we were in there. Here is the thing...I went in today (9/9) for my 3rd fill, this is the first I have been back since the revision. I was poked for over an hour..under fluroscopy..and he couldnt access my port! He went through three needles and I have a huge bruise and about 5 needle insertion sites. He wants to open me again!! This would be the 3rd time if you consider the original surgery! Of course it is no charge..but I am very discouraged. I would like a second opinion. The port was not flipped.. he just kept going off the edge of it with the needle..and asked the nurses " am I the only one who has trouble with these?" OMG!!

My port flipped. The revision surgery was done in the office but I was in A LOT of pain afterwards at the site. It was very swollen and uncomfortable. I have been afraid to go back in for another fill since then. I just really don't want anything else to go wrong.

Hello! My surgeon wasn't Dr Rincon but I do know him on a personal level. I was a nurse at one of the San Antonio hospitals and am very familiar with his work. Also, one of the nurses had her lap band done by him. I highly recommend him. He is wonderful
