Well I just found out why my former doc spent an hour-plus torturing me last Friday, failing to hit my port and take any Fluid out of my over-filled band. The port has flipped. My new doctor figured this out in 30 seconds.
I just met the man and he is operating on me tomorrow to flip the port back over and make the adjustment to loosen my band. I haven't been able to eat for a week. Although, today I did find out I could hold down Peanut Butter cups, Yum! and finally a few calories to calm my growling stomach.
Anybody out there in band-land who has had a flipped port, Holler back and let me know what to expect.
