Just wanted to ask to see if anyone had issues with infections.or any type of complication

Well if you are talking about the larger incision then yes I have. This incision got an infection, took antibiotics for 2 weeks and it is healing nicely.

Good to hear that you are healing up well

No complications, but it was weird. It filled with Fluid, since the absence of the port kinda leaves a hole where it used to be.

Did you have to have it drained or anything?

i HAD LAP BAND SURGERY, and a year later the surgeon went in to replace it (i think it was too small). Well he cut my stomach open and what was suppose to be a 45 minute procedure turned into a 6 1/2 hour surgery. I almost died. I recovered but no lap band. I was self pay, so that $$$$$ flew out the window. I have been thinking about the sleeve. Would anybody recommend it?
