bandedgorJESS 16 Posted March 23, 2012 Had my 3rd full yesterday... I was super excited bc I needed the restriction.... The nurse stabbed me twice trying to find my port... It was so effen painful! I left in so much pain and a day later I'm still in pain! My mom told me my stomach looks bloated! It almost feels like around my port is pooching out : / is this normal?! I'm scared to call my dr and they will take my fill out, I need the restriction ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jen75 33 Posted March 23, 2012 Has it been awhile since your last fill? The last time I went I for a full it had been about a year... It didn't hurt with the needle but I was tender and sore for a few days after. All is well now. Figured it was irritated cuz it hadn't been bothered in awhile. If pain is unbearable, go to the surgeon or at least make a phone call. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leisha249 24 Posted March 23, 2012 Why is a nurse filling? I've had 4 fills and always has been a Dr. Ask for one next time due to difficulty. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
down in the dumps 5 Posted March 30, 2012 Same thing happened to me on my 4 th fill. They couldn't find the port opening and 2 nurses were jabbing me for about 10 minutes. They eventually found it and said it was because I'm losing weight and it happens. I'm still a bit worried about it! But anyway I was bruised quite bad and was sore for over a week. I was still happy they filled me as I had visions of flipped port and surgery. I'd say you'll be fine in a week. Good luck x 1 bandedgorJESS reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
