Hi all. I was banded Aug. 3, 2010. I weighed 285 lbs. I had an "uncontrolled pop" at the port site about 10 days post op. It was drained and I was on antibiotics. I now weigh 250 lbs. I went in for my first adjustment on Sept. 15 and found out my port had flipped. I had surgery for port revision yesterday. I will hopefully have my first fill in 2 weeks. Wishing success to all of us.
