    flipped port

    I am in that 1% also. I went in for my first fill on 7/30/09. After much poking and prodding, I was sent to flouro and the doc did more poking and prodding with no success. I had to go in for port repositioning surgery on 7/31/09. He also did a fill at the same time (don't know how much fill he put in). My personal experience is that the pain level this time is more intense. One good thing is that is it only in one area instead of the entire abdomon. Not sure if the pain is worse because of the combination of all the poking & prodding the day before surgery.
  4. I know it can feel discouraging to feel like your going through all of this and your not consistantly losing, but 2 or 3 lbs. is nothing to panic about. I used to get stressed about a couple pounds until a friend of mine reminded me that a good poop can change your weight by that much. :frown: Just a funny way to say that your body is going to fluctuate. I also have my post-op appt tomorrow. My instructions were to stay on clear liquids (plus skim milk) til after my post-op appt. I am really looking forward to adding a little bit to my diet!!! Drink your water, drink your milk and walk, walk, walk. The weight will eventually start falling back off.
