flipbarnett 0 Posted September 30, 2011 My port is just under my sternum. I had lapband in 2008. It took me 3 to 5 months to get used to it. I wore a sports bra for the longest. It tends to get sore lately. The wire bras don't bother it anymore. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
xisabelle 0 Posted September 30, 2011 i know this might sound weird for you all, but how does this look like? how long will this port stay in there? will the band stay in forever or not? i am just starting to get infos about the lap band, so i am sorry if this sounds stupid to you. i talked to my insurance today and the lady there said: you know, there are a lot of people who would never do this surgery again and they regret doing it. this through me for a loop and after i hung up, i was very sad. i look forward learning a lot and as much as possible here. thanks!
