Fill pain!

I had my fourth fill on wed and did fine until Thursday night. Thursday night I started having a dull consistent pain in my stomach. This pain has been constant since then. My question is does this mean I'm to tight? In eating great I'm full on a little amount and stay full. The dull constant pain is the only thing bothering me. I'm also worried about the possibility of slippage, could the pain be from slippage?

Could you be more specific about the location of the pain?

We often say stomach when it's actually our intestines. And the band is located at the top of our stomachs which is felt more in the chest area.

Yes, need more specifics. Could you be constipated?

It is in the upper part. Upper left pretty close to my chest area.

Is your port on that side? I know mine will feel tender and not just at the injection spot.

No my port is near my belly button. I have never felt this discomfort with my other fills so wasn't sure what it might be. If it doesn't get better by Monday I will call and speak with the doc!

Hmm... Haven't read of anyone experiencing pain in that area except maybe right after surgery when basically everything hurts.

Hopefully your doctor will be able to figure it out and that it's nothing serious.

My port is higher than yours and I still feel a little tenderness in the area you describe but I know it's the port.

I doubt that you have a slip. Usually that causes severe pain, nausea and vomiting. I had a slip and I definately knew it. I felt aweful. Definately see your doctor. They will help you figure it out. It may be that you are a smidge too tight. In between time, monitor the pain and if it gets worse or changes in some way before you see the doctor, you should seek medical treatment. Good Luck!
