I'm glad I read this post. I was definitely getting stuck and then having to throw up. This helped me tremendously. Thanks for the info!

It's not the port. The port is located on the right-hand side upper part. It's the band area where the surgery took place. Most all lap band and gastric bypass patients have the same pain in the same area. I did too. I remember after my surgery how painful (mild) and discomforting my left-side was. It was so sore that it took 3 weeks before I could sleep on my left side. I hope this helps.
