Hi Bandayed! I started a similiar thread in the food forum. i got a lot of good posts from other members. Check it out. I think it is whey vs. soy protein powder. I bumped it for you..........Jess

bumping for Bandayed!

My port was tilted also. The doc couldn't access it at all. I had my surgery in January of this year & was not able to get the port fixed til the end of April. Then I didn't get a good restriction with fills until a few weeks ago. From what I have read on here though, I think there are a couple of people with tilted ports who are just living with them like that cause their doc is still able to access them. The procedure to fix my port was a breeze! No gas! lol! It is an outpatient procedure. Basically they go back in & open up the same scar that they used before. It cost me $700. I was self-pay. Hope this helps!

I'm quitting too! I have quit before (for 5 years) & then like an idiot started back. It was not the easiest thing I ever did, but it was doable. I'm going by the Farmer's Almanac this time. It says that September the 19th is a good day to quit. I wish you lots of luck!! And just know that you are not alone! (((((hugs)))))
