I had surgery Feb 1st, lose 21 lbs so far, had my port flip, got revision surgery on March 28th. Got my first fill of 3.5 during that procedure. Went for second fill April 11th and got 3.5 more. Finally felt restriction but gained 2 lbs in a month from eating too much ice cream and not exercising. Got back on track and lost 3 lbs in 10 days in may! Went for my 3rd fill yesterday and Dr again thought my port had flipped but he got Fluid in. He couldn't get it back out and 4 sips of Water sent me into a puking fit! HORRIBLE!!! if I ever felt that after eating I'd never eat it again! I was filled to 10 ccs in my 11 cc band. I find out my line has a kink but if u push down on my fat roll the kink goes away and fluid can be taken out. I am filled to 7.5 now and it takes me about an hour to eat a normal sized plate of food. I go back in 6 wks and will have to get fills by x ray until I lose enuff weight to loosen up my kink!

None of any of this sounds like fun. I didn't even know a port could flip. How do they know that happens? A kink?! I never knew that was possible either.

Does anyone else feel like their body is seriously trying to sabatoge their serious efforts toward weight loss!? Flipped port and a kink!!! Seriously!

Yep. It flipped over because the suttures came lose from my muscle it was attached to. The kink also happens more often than I'd like!
