Have you had a leak in your port/tubing and had to have it replaced?
liteweighttrina replied to DrewsLou's topic in General Weight Loss Surgery Discussions
Hi guys! My name is trina and i had to get my port replaced the monday after Christmas!!! My doc figured it out about 2 weeks prior to this. I had switched docs in oct because i had major probs with my previous one. I had surg in june and i had only lost about 15# since in oct. I was walking 3 mi a least 4days a week and told him that if i did not exercise almost daily, that i would not loose any weight. He didn't agree, basically saying that i was lying about exercising.So, to make a long story short, i changed docs. Now before i changed docs, my fills would be horrible. The very first fill, he got it with 2 sticks. Everytime after that it always took 6,7,8 times and then i would have bloody stools the next 2 days!! EVERYTIME!. When i told him about this of course i was lying. So when i changed docs, the new one would have me sit up to do my fill which was diff! I should have had 6cc upon changing and it was barely 3cc's in my band:confused:! so he took it all out and added 1cc so i had 4. My restriction was never great before so this was new to me. After 2 weeks no restrict. went back he added 2more cc, had great restrict. went back about 5 weeks later, the beginning of dec, with poor weight loss and not good restrict. he tried filling it slowly and too much restrict, he loosed it and i began to drink water as he SLOWLY filled it and still no restrict! WTH!!! That's how he found my leak! so when i had surg he said my port was so beat up, that the saline or sterile water would just leak right back out!:eek:! So basically i feel like i had wasted 7 months with only 42# lost with me working my ass off with a foreign piece in my body that hasn'teven work for me ! So now, it's like im starting over from the beginning again. I hope this time it works. I did not have to pay anything for the replacement of my port but damn!! Thanks for listening:biggrin: -
Me, before surgery.

Hey girl! just wondered upon ur pics and went to ur profile. Wow! I had to have my port replaced 2 weeks ago. I changed docs in sept due conflicting issues with fills and no restriction, slow weight loss even with workout. Discovered in Dec my port was leaking. got my first post op fill today and i am really restricted, a good thing. How r u doing?
-
yeah, but im not perfect. as u may or may not know i had to get my port replaced due to leaking. evidently ive been leakin pretty much since the beginning. so the now 44 lb lost has pretty much been on my own! but i got a fill today, the first after my operation and i only have 3.2cc and i am very restricted! I had 7cc before surg and had no restrict! Im excited and hopefully will be able to loose BIG time! Ciau!(chow) lol
