    ONLY ME! i flipped!

    Hi, This also happened to me on my second filled. I had to have surgery to get it reflipped. I was in surgery less than an hour and home the next day . This is not the ideal situation but rest assure its fixable. I had my port reflipped the week of Xmas and I have been fine since then. I hope this helps

    3Rd Fill

    I got my 3rd fill Wednesday this is the first time I had 1cc put in. Yesterday I was able to eat soup n drink tea, today I can't even hold down water I am miserable. I was fine at first, has anyone ever experienced this?

    3Rd Fill

    So, I had surgery yesterday to have my port flipped back that right way and then the took .75 cc's out. Right now I am resting. In a lot of pain but thankful my issues have been resolved.

    3Rd Fill

    Update my band is ok. I need an unfill cuz nothing is flowing through my band. Now they are trying to find someone who can find my port opening, which is always a challenge. My stomach is bruise and sore from being poked so much.

    3Rd Fill

    I was admitted into the hospital and they will be checking to see if my band slipped and if I need surgery. After vomiting all night, I am finally starting to feel some relief.

    First fill question

    Hi, My first fill is Monday evening, can you eat food on the same day as your fill.
  21. Went to get my fill and wasn't successful because my port looks flipped. Going to see my surgeon tomorrow in hopes he is able to do my fill, if not I may have to have another surgery to flip my port back around. Has anyone ever had this problem?
