port revision

[mjnjv3 0]

Currently had a port revision due to a flipped port. I have had the band 3 years in july. I am 15 days post op. I am still sore and I apparently have Fluid between my port and skin. I look deformed. Didnt know if this was a common thing. I have my post op appt on Thursday. I had to go to the er a week after surgery and thats when they found the fluid but it seems to have gotten worsr and all I was told was that it will go away. Anyone else experience this? Thanks

When I had port revision, my Dr also said there was Fluid around port and it would go away.It did.

I just had my 2nd port revision this past friday 6/14/13 due to being flipped. This time it looks more swollen but my Dr. Said that he was going to use a mesh to make sure it stuck this time and did not flip. I hope this is the last time since I have been banded since 3/09. I have been having minor pain and went back to normal routine, just no heavy lifting.

I have to have a port revision as well. How much does it cost?
