Leaky Port...Now What?



Recommended Posts

So i went to get a fill on Friday and the saline from my first fill is MIA... Maybe it's a leak she says.

We can just replace the port ...Its a small procedure...less than first surgery....

RIGHT..... so is she going under anesthia?

By the way is this covered under warranty?

HELP

so now i have to go back and they(Doc) will inject die and find out where it is leaking....

Anyone else gone through this? what leaks ? she said port but how does she know?

It is very rare that the tubing can get a leak, and they are poking around there to do the fill and that can be the way you get a leak. I hope you dont have a leak but if you do the surgery for it is very easy. They only have to do Local anesthia. I am getting my port replaced this Thursday due to a leak but Im going all the way under because I have a possable Hernia that he is going to fix.

Let us know the outcome Take Care
