I had very little pain with my lapband in the beginning. I'm about 2 1/2 weeks out from surgery and I just started having pain about where my port would be. It's almost like a burning pain sometimes. Any idea what this could be or is this something common? I'll probably give it another day or so and call my doctor before the holiday if it doesn't stop.
