Port incision and fills

Hey I had my band in dec 2013 and have lost 2 1-2 stone since. I've been for fill and had saline injected In the incision of where the port is.. However last fill it was injected at another place. Since then I have felt my belly n feel my port as moved from where it was.. Can that happen and if so is it normal??

My understanding is that it is sutured in place. Odd that two different areas were filled if I understand you correctly. Fluoroscopy fill might be a good option?

Jus feel so unwell with the headaches neck pain n chest pains

The fill is performed while it and you are having an X-ray .

Sorry to hear you are feeling un well. With your symptoms, it may be a good idea to visit your primary or general practitioner, it's not something I have seen anyone else complain of in conjunction with their band. Monday is almost here!
