Can't wait for the port to be gone, gone, gone!



Recommended Posts

Haven't seen much mention of this issue here, but this port bump is driving me crazy!!! It itches, and my DH says he can always feel it. So excited for it to be GONE!!!

So, the question is, what does your abdomen look like now, post-band and post-sleeve, doc is telling me he is going to use the same holes. But do you end up with a divot where the port used to be?

I am 10 weeks post op revision and I have no sign of the port. I was sore in that spot longer then the other. Good luck!

Revision 1/31/13 by Dr Cabrera and Venezuela in MX

Same here. Been 13 weeks since my revision and it's like it was never there. Best decision I have ever made!

That's good to hear as I also wondered about this.

I'm 9 days out and the bump is there, that's where the biggest incision is, and it feels like scar tissue underneath, but I'm hoping it will fade away soon. My husband is so glad it's gone, he said it felt weird.
