Mediport question

I know this will not apply to most of you, but I have to ask. Does anyone have a medi port placed before RNY? I am wondering if you had to have it moved or changed after you lost your weight.

Yes that is the same thing. Did you have it prior to surgery?

I have found that mine is sticking out more and more. It is to the point that I can see the line going into the chest.

I've Had mine for over 3yrs...i really haven't noticed any change yet but I'm only 8 wks out and down 32lbs....that's something I'll have to pay more attention to..sure hope it doesn't affect how good it works..I'm supposed to get it flushed monthly but I let it go longer...may I ask why you have one? Mine was put in during cancer treatment
