There can always be complications in what ever you do unfortunatley my port had to be removed...I ended up with an infection. My band is still on but my port is missing my Dr. said as soon as I'm feeling better they'll put it back! Absess is no fun!
Signs of infection....
fever, chills
no energy
just feeling crappy
stomach pain
rash on stomach
these are a few signs somethings not right.
Also rapid weight:wub: loss.
If you have to bug your Dr. it's o.k. don't wait!!!!!:w00t: Banded July 7th 2009 weight loss as of Sept. 10th 50 lbs
