I had the very same problem, I am 1 year out and 2 weeks ago I had a port revision. The doctor went in and moved my port because of the pain, I couldn't wear pants, sits forward, or even lift things. It was so painful, and now I have no pain at all, wear jeans again, sit normal and lift. It's been great. Talk to your doctor about moving your port

I am 10 months post op and have lost 70lbs. I have been Gavin problems with my port being sore and sometimes hurting. Last time I saw my surgeon they said it could be from working out and still healing, that was about 6 months ago. Well I went back yesterday to see my surgeon again since I can't wear regular paints, bend over to pick something up, or even carry my daughter without it hurting. So he is going to go in and move my port upwards a little bd see if that helps, no promises that it will make it stop hurting. I am very pleased with the lapband and has help me change my lifestyle for the better. Has anyone ever had to have their port moved also?? Thanks

For those of you who drink or want to drink coffee
kyrasmom replied to meyouus's topic in LAP-BAND Surgery Forums
I was told by my surgeon and nutritionist that the only reason they don't want me to have caffeine is because it dehydrates you, and they want us to stay hydrated. I drink coffee alot (from the south) and have been since I was a little girl, even my 5 yr old drinks coffee with me so I have both with caffeine and decaf just what ever I choose for that day.. -
Thanks everyone for your input and advice. I glad I'm not the only one
