Ok I'm a restart been home 8 hrs how do I know what side is my port I have 5 incisions

I was able to find my port because it's closer to the top closest to my breast and I had to be Band-Aids covering the incision I'm not sure if yours are the same. I'm not sure about everyone else but I'm having gas pains but I did make sure that bought chewable Gas-X. so when I came home yesterday I had to take two chewable (30 minutes in between) all after that I've been walking around to help pass the gas or Burp.

Keda, Mrs Britt is right, My port is the biggest bandage. Also kinda under my right breast but a little towards the middle. Once its not painful you can probably push down a little and feel it. I think? LOL best of luck!!

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
