Pic of my Port "Alien" just for laughs



Recommended Posts

Since it seems to come up now and then about our port sites and how they look "after," I had to share this recent pic of me. Just got back from a grueling week-long hiking vacation with my 21-year-old son, and he took this pic of me pretending to be P90x tough girl. This is the first time my port was so visible in a photo. (Hope the pic is big enough that you can see it.) It's just the combination of my position and the clingy shirt, but it cracked me up. So for those of you wondering what CAN happen when you hit your goal and tighten up, this is it. Not worth it to me to have more surgery, but it does drive me crazy sometimes. :blink:post-216551-13813135369082_thumb.jpg

Looks like you have to click on the pic to open it big, and then you can see the telling "lump." :)

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

      Anyone had the TORe procedure? How did it go? How much weight did you loose?

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
