Leak in Band

Has anyone had a leak on the bank or around the port? I was told last week that I probably had a leak. I go today to find out the answer!

I had a leak in my port and it was replaced in Dec. now we found out I have a leak in my band and I will be getting that replaced in May. I am going this weekend to get my port taken out due to an infection i got from a fill I had in March.

How did it turn out? what did your Dr. say, do you have a leak in your band or port? Let us know

My doctor put a hole through the tubing near the port when he was trying to do a fill in his office. He slipped and pierced the tubing. We didn't realise for a couple of months but I thought something was wrong cause after each fill I felt a bubbling sensation in my stomach near the port and the restriction I initially felt disappeared after a few days. I ended up having the port replaced soon after.
