  1. port infection then port removal

    cardone replied to andrea71's topic in Tell Your Weight Loss Surgery Story
    My boyfriend had the labband 5 yrs ago and has been done with his fills for over 3 yrs. He got a staph infection from the port. They removed the port and left it as an open wet to dry dressing. He felt good but after 3 days of pulling the port he is feeling worse. Pains in his side and it hurts to laugh or cough. His surgeon was a jerk the worst bed side matter ever. Surgeon didnt seem concerned about this. He is going to talk with his MD tomorrow. Has anyone ever heard this happening? Any input would be appreciated.
