The other day - I went to the gas station bent over under the steering wheel to pull the floor lever to pop the gas door to fill up my car with gas and the most excruciating pain at the port happened- all I could do was suck in my breath and not breath for about a minute until the pain calmed down. I am almost 10 years out- so not sure if I flipped my band or just pulled it. It is still tender today a little.

Has anyone else had pain like that?

My doctor is over an hour away and I can't get in for a few days.

I would call your surgeon's office and explain the pain.

I have had a sharp pain in my port while bending. Thankfully it did subside.

I'm also over 10 years out and do NOT want to trade in my band.

Please tell us about any follow up
