:phanvan Hello, I was banded Oct. 31, 2006. At first everything was fine. Shortly after I came home I began hurting. A burning, hot, searing hurt in my port area. My doctor said the stitches may have gone through a nerve. As long as I am not wearing a bra it is bearable, somewhat. It hurts constantly and sitting at my desk is very uncomfortable. I am wondering if anyone else has had a similiar experience.

It is Nov. 14 and I have an appointment today. So far, I feel I have no restriction and can eat just about anything. I am not sure if I will get a fill today or if I will just go in for a visit. I have been unable to get off pain medication and do not like how I feel when I take it. I also have not been able to sleep in my bed since surgery due to the port site hurting.

Very sorry to hear you are in pain :cry I hope your doc appointment will go well and he's able to do something about it. Let us know how it goes! Good luck!

Thank you....

How was your appt? what did the doc say about your port pain? Did you get a fill? Update please!!!
