Almost the months out from surgery and really no issues at all.

Today i started having a kind of a weird pain at my port incision....but my port is about five inches south of my scar. I also burped for the first time since before surgery.

Now I'm worried that i might be slipped. Any suggestions or are these normal occurrences? Any input? Would a slip have any feel?

I have port pain from time to time for no reason. It just gets tender for a day or two. Doctor told me it was normal. As for it slipping, if you have been following the rules your chances of it being a slip is slim. If you haven't then it might put your mind at ease to schedule an appointment. But usually a slip will generate more serious symptoms like vomiting. But it never hurts to check in with the doc, that's what they are there for.

Good luck.

Its not really port pain. My incision is high on my stomach and my port is five inches away and sits in my waist.

I know that i eat too large of portions and I'm working on getting that under control. Just concerned about this twingy thing because its new. Nothing like this in three months since getting my band and I'm wondering if I've caused a slip or maybe stretched my stomach?

I don't know what this would feel like. Everything else I've read about slips people talk about acid Redux and poison and inability to eat.

I'm not in pain or vomiting or anything. I'll ask my surgeon next week.

      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.
