Port Pain and TOM

Hi,

I had my surgery about 2 months ago and I am having port pain. This is the first for me. It feels like it is just so sore like I hit it on something.

I think I read that during TOM, it can be sore but I don't know if that is true or not.

Anyone know?

Thanks!

Gilta

Hi,

I have not had a fill yet, so that isn't it. I exercised on Monday and this started Wed am so I don't think it was related to that.

I have lost 43 since I started and about 30 since surgery.

wow, what is your food secrets :w00t: i have major back problems so am not able to do much in the way of excercise but maybe you could give me some other tips, i have been a slow loser and i have stuck to the diet plan.

i wished i knew why your port was sore. mine is still sore from my first fill a week ago.

I don't really have any secrets. I eat about 800-900 calories a day and work out 2-3 times per week. I know the exercise has helped me out a lot. In the beginning I could only get about 300 calories in a day so that is where I lost a lot of my weight. I have slowed down a lot since I can eat more.

Hopefully someone will let me know why this is happening!

Hang in there, you will lose!

I am scheduled to go next friday for my fill. If it isn't better by Monday I will call and see what they want to do. It is strange as in the morning it is ok and it is by evening when it gets sore.

Good news is I am down another 2 lbs!

oh mine does that too. i usually have to come home and put on something (like a gown) that doesn't bind me in anyway.

the port is sewn to a muscle. and by the end of the day mine is pulling and bothering me. not sure if this is the same as yours though.
