Okay my tuck is scheduled for December 13th. My PS has a LOT of experience with ports and he will be moving and repositioning mine. He said I can get it unfilled before surgery or leave it, it's up to me.

Now if I leave it filled will anything from the surgery cause it to swell?

Also, I've been reading on the net and I found that most PS's recommend arnica tablets and bromelain to help with healing. I can't swallow anything bigger than a birth control pill most days. I can't even swallow a Tylenol unless it's a round shaped easy tab.

Did you take the Arnica or Bromelain?

Should I get a minor unfill just in case?

Well my PS said he will do whatever my Lap Band surgeon says. My Lap Band surgeon is INSISTING I be completely unfilled:( BLech. I see him on the 12th for the unfill and at that time I'm going to try my best to talk him out of it or at least get him to take a little bit out but not the whole amount.
