Tiny1234 121 Posted March 1, 2013 Yes, bruising and me go hand in hand so I wasn't surprised to see my bruise after surgery. I've only been banded for 3 months and will bruise if I happen to carry the laundry basket tight against my port, or anything else that rubs up against me. Ohhh...that sounded dirty, but I'm sure you know what I mean. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
