When does this cease? Do you remember when it didn't bother you anymore? Only 7 days out and I know I have a while. It seems to be bothering me a little bit more now. I have a burning sensation and of course the tugging/pulling feeling inside... Yack.. i dont like it at all! :cursing:

It'll all be worth it but for now it sucks :lol:

I had my surgery 3 weeks ago and I still have a little pain and discomfort, the first week and a half though was a killer and noone had told me about that part of the procedure. It was a case of live and learn. It does get better, just take it easy and it will subside. :cursing:

I don't remember how long my port pain lasted, since I was banded in 2003. Resolved by six weeks, I think. The only time it hurts now is if I press an edge against it (like carrying a box) or when my cat stands on it.

I was banded on 3/2 and my port pain is 90% resolved. Last week it was horrible so based on the rate that it has been subsiding I expect it to be gone within another week.

I always have port pain. I was banded 8/2008. It is not constant but I cannot wear jeans without it hurting when I sit down. I cannot sit period for a long time. I always have that reminder it is there.

      Just been waiting until time for my consult with my bariatric surgeon. It's scheduled for Jan 9th. Turns out I won't actually be seeing him. Apparently it'll be with his P.A.             Not sure what to expect. I thought this is where the surgeon would discuss the best surgery option for me. For years I had my heart set on the sleeve, but I've read so many people have issues with reflux - even if they've never had it before - that they've had to be revised to the bypass. I already deal with GERD & take 40 mg of Omeprazole daily, so I started studying about bypass and honestly, it seems like it might be the better choice for me. How can we discuss surgery options if the surgeon is not there?
      What happened at your first consult? Trying to get an idea of what to expect, or maybe I should say, what NOT to expect.
