Dull Pain

[clg016 11]

I feel like I'm using this forum a lot lately! I appreciate all of the feed back!

I went in March 10 for a check up and had .5 cc removed from my band. I had the Fluid removed voluntarily because I was sick and having a hard time staying hydrated. My doctor's office conducted a barium swallow test and found that my band and everything else was in good shape. My nurse has no issues finding my port and removing the Fluid. She did use a different kind of needle this time. However, since the small unfill, I have had a dull, achy pain in my stomach area. I don't have any problems eating, no nausea, or any other issues, just the pain. So my question is, is is common to have some pain after and unfill? My doctors office is closed until Monday.

Thanks for any responses.

I don't have the scientific reasoning behind it but I too don't feel so hot after a fill. there is a small and I mean small amount of discomfort at the port site. I also get a lower back ache. I think it's because I have to lay flat and raise my head for the port to be in the right position. this discomfort is usually gone the next day. if your's isn't even if your doctor's office is closed they have someone on call to answer your question. just call your doctors telephone number. hope you feel better quickly
