am sitting in my chair at my desk.

walking a bit more than normal but not lifting or doing anything (hurtful)

but it is sore.

do you think its okay?

my port site was sore for almost 2 weeks after surgery. sitting at work was the hardest for me i think the way I was sitting was putting pressure on the port stitches. You are probably fine, but call your doctor/nurse if you are concerned.

hey colleen, that is what i did and that is what she said (pretty much) and to walk about once an hour. (picture me going to bathroom w/all this water/liquid stuff).

did you have to do milk of mag?

i have one issue with the ruins now the other since i have been taking align...

believe me i understand the going to the bathroom all the time. I never had to use the milk of mag. for me it was liquid in and liquid out for almost 3 weeks. it does get better, I'm a month out today and I'm feeling great.

am 12 days out now........so far so good.

am hoping my first f/u this thursday goes well for me.

i use to have boxers (showed them in dog shows). yours is so pretty.

Good luck today at work. I had my band put in on June 5th I'm not going back to work until July 9th I know it's going be a change but I'm ready for it. My incision started leaking out on Saturday and it's still doing it a little. I called the Dr on call Sat he act like its ok so I can't wait to go to the dr on wen. for him to tell me all is good. Only one giving me problem is the big incision. It hurts a little when I sit for a long time or stand too.

hey add

sorry to hear about that. hope it is okay and i am sure it will be.

i wanted to go back to work last week (but am glad i waited til today).

i will admit my one incision site is sore but i am moving and walking

around. went to the drug store w/my friend. called the dr and told them

and she said its normal.

is your incision the port one? that is the one hurting on me.

Yes it's that one and I have glue over it it's not stich up they closed it with glue

yes, mine are all glued also.

what did they say when u called them?

I just went to the doctor today for the pain, burning sensation at my port site. I'll be 9 weeks post op tomorrow. The doctor said everything felt fine, that I probably had a stitch come loose (those internal ones), but it's been aggravating me for 3 days. I'll continue to walk and hope it dissolves quickly so I can get back to Zumba this weekend. Eat well, Rest well, and look forward to the new you!

Only thing he said was its normal sometime but I'm going to ask my dr wen

I have a lot of pain when sitting at work. Of course I sit at a microscope all night leaning forward.... When I come back from eating lunch it's absolute torture. But I think I've worked out a compromise where I can lean back in my chair and watch the images on a computer monitor. I've only been back at work for 2 nights so hopefully it will get better after my incisisons heal all the way.

I have a sit-at-desk job also and last monday inwent back to work after a week out for the surgery. I think last tuesday was really bad for me too as far as feeling pain on the left incision where the port is and ive noticed its the only bruise that i have lert. Well today is monday again and its gotten a lot better at work i can say im 90% pain free so its just a matter of time for you too i bet, hang in there!

I got mine the 29th of May And today my port area is sore how would I know if it flipped over I'm nervous kinda freaking me out
