hi, i'm a newbie. i was banded monday 10-27 in boston.

i saw my dr yesterday because my port site was hot and red.

as suspected it was infected . (i saw a photo of an infected port on this site which is what convinced me to call my dr) today it looks much better after only 3 doses of antibiotics. i have to admit i am hungry but very happy to have the surgery behind me.

thanks,

tri

Hi! It's great you caught the infection so fast! :rolleyes2:

Make sure you take ALL your antibiotic! (you know that!)

Hope the rest of your recovery is a non-event!

i will take all my antibiotics, thanks for the welcome and warning, restless. i dont want any other problems. tri

Hi Tri,

I am a newbie here, and I was just wondering who did your surgery....I too am in the Boston area, and just starting research on this procedure.

I do hope everything is going along swimmingly now that your infection should be healed :-)

Thank you!
