  1. Trina, What insurance do you have? And what plastic surgeon did you go to. I am looking to get a tummy tuck after loosing 150 lbs but cannot afford it with out a little help from the insurance.
  2. I'm 2 years post-op from lap band and I've lost 125 lbs! But every now and then I get a pain in my lower abdomen on the side of my stomach where my port is. Its about 2 or three inches to left of my belly button. Its feels like a stabbing pulling pain. Almost like what you get when you run and your not quite in shape to run and you get that pain in your side. Well its the same pain, but on the front of my abdomen. I get it when I've eaten to much so I just always assumed it was just my port pulling or something and never really made a fuss about it, but today its bothering me a lot especially when I walk or lay down completly flat. Does anybody else get this and have they asked their doctor about it or know what might be going on?
