jayeljay613 1 Posted January 29, 2011 Hi all. I got my band four weeks ago and my first fill three days ago. Since the surgery I have been bothered off-and-on from a "bulge" a couple of inches above my port site. For all you woman out there who have children the best I can describe it as is the feeling you get when you have a little foot poking out! Strange analogy but that is what it feels like! Today it is particularly uncomfortable and I find myself holding it in as I walk. I used to think it was the port site but then after my fill I realized it is higher than that. Anybody have any ideas? It is really getting annoying! Thanks, Jenn Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
muelle 64 Posted January 29, 2011 I had similar pressure also. I always describe it as feeling like a foot, head, or behind of a baby in my rib. Is that what you are experiencing? I had it off and on for about 6 weeks, it wasn't painful, but could get very annoying. I am now almost 10 weeks post op and it is pretty much gone. Once in awhile when I bend down I can feel it, but I just "readjust" and it goes away. My doctor said it is most likely scar tissue, but not to worry about it. I hope this helps, and good luck on your journey! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
