I went in today for my 2nd fill and couldn't get it:angry My port has flipped. I had my first fill 2 weeks ago. I can't imagine what I did to cause it to flip.

1. Has anyone experienced a flipped port?
   
2. How was it corrected?
   
3. Were you put to sleep or was it done with local anestesia? (sp?)
   
4. Is it alright to continue to exercise with a flipped port?

Had my port revison done on August 16th. They put me under twilight sedation and the procedure went very smootly. The used the same incision and I said my port was tilted on it's side and was not completely flipped over. I am happy though because I have a mini port that was designed to to stick out too much and with it turned at an angle it kind of defeated the purpose. Now it lays flat, other than the swelling. I had an ugly scar too from the original surgery that kind of stuck out and it looks like that is fixed too. I had changed doctors and used Dr. Benavides for my port revision. So far I believe I am happy with the results. He also gave me a small fill of .2cc's.

Dr. B. is my surgeon also...he's great--he did my port revision. How much have you lost and why did you switch doctors?
