I am 3 weeks post op and have been feeling back to normal!! All of a sudden today I have pain in my left side, in the area that my port is....It hurts to twist or bend. I DID move some furniture today and I'm kinda freaking out that I may have messed something up....any thoughts? I go to the dr tomorrow for my first fill, a fill that I am SO looking forward to since I am starving all of the time and haven't lost weight since my pre op diet :/ I hope and pray that he doesn't say that I messed up and can't have the fil....

I am two weeks post-op and like you I almost fell in the kitchen the other day and since then have had a sharp pain when I twist or turn or bend it is on my right side. I'm a nervous nelly about it, but it seems to be getting better each day. Maybe it's the same for you, it will get better each day. If it gets worse I guess you should call the Doc.

I tripped up the stairs about 2 weeks post op and strained my belly, ended up with tenderness for a few days. You've probably pulled the muscle the port is stitched to and it may be a little swollen. Maybe try and icebag to the belly for a bit...I liked that post op. Bring it up with your doc tomorrow. Good Luck! I have another 2 weeks (total of 6) before I am eligible for my first fill.
