    The "it feels like I've done nothing but sit ups for eight years straight" feeling whenever I got up from sitting or laying down. O.O

Banded on the 20th of this month. Home on 21. On 22 i couldn't breathe. 102.8 fever. I will remember it all

Had the lap band 9/4, caught a bacteria infection 9/6, no fever or pain, just that I could see the infection speeding and was red and swollen. Hospitalized 5 days later to be put on antibiotics, everything is now cleared up. I'm good to go, got 5ccs filled in today.

I wanted a crane to get me out of bed! I really had no gas. So sorry for all the infection stories was it the port that was infected? I tweaked my port today I had to lift something on the side of the road. I shouldn't have. I tell people I can't even feel the band its the port that hurts!

Yes, caught a bacteria infection at the port site but under the skin so there was nothing I could do. I got my 1st fill today and realized there was still some drainage but the dr said that will dry up on it's own.
