Do you feel the band inside? The port?



Recommended Posts

Hello, I am three months to having the surgery and I was wondering if anyone has had an issue with "feeling" the band? Do you bump your port? I think that is my worst fear! Knowing there is a medical device inside me!

I have over 100 pounts to lose, that is the other question....it seemed as if the MD only thought I would lose about 50 pounds....I am 273 pounds and 5 foot tall!

I had surgery on December 30, 2010 and I have not felt my band or the port. I am 5' 4" and 245. I was 255 at the day of surgery. I have read everyone elses post and they all seem to say the same thing so good luck to you and keep asking questions you are your best advocate when it comes to your health.
