I've seen lots of posts about food getting stuck and having a feeling in your chest (had it, know about it) but, maybe I missed it, I haven't seen any posts about feeling like maybe you have food stuck in the actual pouch/port area? I feel like it's swollen and full when i push on it by my port. Mine is on my actual stomach. I've seen posts that say pineapple juice or papaya tablets, but I wasn't sure if that's just if you have the pain in your chest? Does anyone know if this is stuck food or normal or what? I have been banded since last May, and I've lost everything but about 30 lbs towards my goal. I was thinking also I might just be able to feel it more since I don't have as much fat covering it anymore? Please help! It feels kind of uncomfortable and like things just aren't passing through right. I've talked to my doctor and they took some of the fluid out, but I don't have much left to take out. :Banane20:
