hey i wen tot the sergon the other day. wieghed in i lost 4 pounds. yay! took five weeks to do it. went to get anouther fill. doc says i think you got a leck in your port. she injects die into my port. we saw somthing by the band didnt know if it was from the port or my intestins. so she takes the die out and says if your restriction is less then we are going to swchedule you for sergery. now im not sure if i want to go back under this soon because it took my a couple of weeks to get back to normal. im a slow healer. but its only 2 day after the fill and im already starting to feel a tiny bit less restricted. mybe because the swelling is gone done idk, im going to give it a couple more days and see if the restrition gets any less.

If they are just going in to do some type of port revision surgery, it is nothing compared to the lapband surgery itself. My port flipped, so I had to have revision surgery. I was in and out in no time, and there is minimal pain afterwards. I didn't require any type of pain medication.

Hope everything works out for you.

Good luck with everything. Yes...it happens to me too that you have some swelling following a fill then once it goes away you feel like you have lost some restriction. Bummer!
