Gosh, I don't know. Does it feel higher than it was before? I still get nervous with my port sometimes because it is hard for me to be still and not doing things. Sometimes It still gets sore and last night when I bent over to pick something up, I could feel it pulling on the muscle. I'm only 5 months post op so I will sure be glad when the port area and the big incision heal up. When do you go for your next fill? They should be able to tell you. Good luck, I hope it is ok.

      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.
