Hey everyone! I have been having serious pain exactly where my port is for the past 2 days. I have been taking some left over pain medicine from a surgery that I had back in Jan. of this year but it's not seeming to help. I'm starting to wonder if something is going on with my port, like if it has slipped or even maybe has flipped or trying to? If it's not any better by tomorrow, I'm calling the doctors office. Just wondering if anyone out there in bandland has any suggestions as to what it could be. I had my surgery back in August of '08 by the way.

I just posted a thread wondering if anyone was having this problem. Is it kind of a burning sensation? Not awful, just enough to be irritating? I'm 14 months post op , I though I was beyond things like this happening.:confused:

You may have done some kind of exercse that has pulled the muscle to which the port is attached. You may even have somehow torn some of the stitches.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
