I knew something was wrong with my port right after surgery I turned too quick and I felt a burning inside where the port was stationed. I went in for my 1st fill last Thurs and the doctor bent 3 needles before he realized he could not find it. 2 days later I was taken the hospital/ radiology for a Floroscopy. And the darn thing was completely facing the opposite direction. My doctor pressed down on my stomach and was able to make it flip sideways and he was able to do a 2.5 cc fill in a 10 cc band. I am most upset because I have never had any restriction following this ordeal!!! Oh well, I'm hoping for restriction next month when I go back for another fill.:thumbup:

I got my 1st fill last Thursday. 2.5cc in a 10cc band. I can eat anything. I am so frustrated! I wish I could get some restriction. I know this is almost a week ago. I hope you are feeling better now. For me, I am just trying to diet as if I did not have the band on at all. Sucks since I spent so much money on this darn thing. Oh well. Maybe one day I will get my "sweet spot":thumbup:

I really appreciate your reply. I feel much better now. Well I go at 800am tomorrow morning. Wish me luck! I will keep you posted :thumbup:

I went for my 1st fill today and my doctor could not find the port hole so I couldn't get my fill that I have been waiting for for 6 weeks. Getting depressed.
