Sorry guys, I fell asleep. I ended up taking some pain meds and using a heating pad one cycle. Swelling is gone now, I did however call the doctors office back (called before they were open earlier) and explained what had happened and that I wanted to check if it was normal and what to do next time. Anyway, waiting on a call back from them. I'll let you know what they say. No, it's not an infection, I don't have a fever or anything like that, and it's not my port site, it was literally my insides and my port were super swollen that was causing the pain. I'm still a little tender there , but nothing like it was

Where is your port? Mine is right above my belly button

Pretty sure she's talking about kaiser insurance guys! Lol

And I totally did a body pillow, but apparently I just moved around it. The kicker? I've only had 3 hrs of sleep so I know I wasn't on it for THAT long

I just tried to call, not open yet. Don't think it's emergency number worthy since I know what the problem is. So, they open at 8 or 9, I'll call again then.

Update : just took some of my hydrocodone ap and put my heating pad over my stomach. We'll see if this helps.

I hurts pretty damn bad, but I'm 99% sure it's from the pressure that caused the swelling. What can I do to help the swelling go back down?

I woke up on my stomach (normally stomach sleeper) I'm 2 weeks post op and in bad pain near port area. My stomach is swollen as well. I can't stand up straight because it hurts from the swelling in assuming. Help! Anyone else like this? What can I do? Other than the obvious of not sleeping on my stomach...can't help that since I turned in my sleep.

Oh, I was also banded with gastric plication

I was banded on the 5th and I had my 2 week post op appt today and I am down 14lbs. I've been on soft food for a week, gained 3 lbs back and finally got those off and down a couple more.

Congrats! That's awesome!

I was given the box for mine and it says lapband ap standard. After looking it up mine looks to be like 10cc's. can you look yours up too?
