I have had several people I know who are veterans, have to undergo emergency surgery because of various reasons, but it all usually pointed back to the fact that their port was in their stomach. I had my surgery 5/2/14 and my surgeon put my port close to my armpit, and I guess I was hoping that he did that to prevent these issues from happening. Everybody's okay, I am just a little freaked out lol. So I'm curious to know where everyone has their port.

I agree that chick fila has great grilled nuggets. I have 4 cc's in my band and I will get the kid's meal with 4 nuggets and it fills me right up. Also if I get salads from anywhere I will ask that fried chicken be replaced with grilled. Slight changes like that are a great benefit. I've also crave healthier foods! Not sure if that's just in my head though lol

My port is almost in my armpit, right above my breast. The people who have had emergency surgery; one of them had the tubing from the port become adhezed to their intestines and move their intestines around causing a bowel obstruction. And since port is so high up, I figure that May have been a preventative measure of sorts. I don't know, just curious to see where everyone has their port!
