I am about 1 year post-op. I had a fill about 6 weeks ago and was too tight, so I had .3 cc's taken out 1 week ago and food is going down just fine. But a new problem I have been experiencing is pain (more like soreness) at my port site. Most noticably after eating for maybe an hour or two. It's nothing excruciating or anything, but I have never had it before. Just curious wether anyone ese had the same problem. The only thing I could think it would be is the heaviness of my food sitting in the pouch tugging on it, making it sore but I don't even know if that is something that even happens or something I just made up in my head. I can tell you that everything has checked out when they have looked inside me when they use flouroscopy and there is no twisting or bending or anything. Also, there is no redness, irritation or swelling where they injected me to take out the fluid so I am pretty sure it's not infection. It feels more like the muscle is sore. If anyone else has felt this and knows what it is, I would greatly appreciate your input. Thanks so much.
