Infecction Free & First Fill

Six weeks after my surgery my port incision became infected. I have been on antibiotics for two weeks and the infection is gone and I was able to get my first fill today! My doctor numbs the area and it did not hurt at all! I was able to drink a bottle of water before I left and of course I am on liquids until tomorrow. So excited and ready for this next stage of my lapband journey!

Congrats! How did u know it was infected? I read that a few times on the forum and didn't realize it was so common

My incision became really inflamed and was oozing a little bit. I was so scared they were going to have to take the port out and then put it back in later. Thankfully it looks like the meds worked!

Well glad ur feeling better! Thanks for answering
