  1. Hi - I was banded on Dec 28. everything seems to be healing well, except that my left side (near the port) is painful - (like the stitch in the side pain you would get with running) and then I am getting some pain in my left back area too. I have been walking and returned to work. The actual incisions look fine and healing well - there is some brusing near the port. How long does the port pain last? I usually feel it (move about and a bit more pain) when I stand up and then when I sit down. But just wondering if this is normal and when it will stop hurting... or if its something that I need to investigate.
  2. thanks for your replies re: port pain - my left side really hurts and it moves over onto my back (kidney area) -it really feels like the stitch in your side from running and drinking too much water .... am trying not to freak out and think that this stupid surgery has left me with internal bleeding and/or a bruised liver - its not there in the morning and escalates through the day.... I was at the grocery store today and bent over and had a sharp reminder.... I was hoping the pain would be gone by now and that I would be able to walk and sit and not wince. Perhaps I am just doing too much too soon. Its been 9 days.
  3. Does anyone know when the port side pain is going to go away?
