Latest Fill - Not Happy



Recommended Posts

Feeling all great cause I lost another 7 pounds and ready to get my fill....Well, hold that thought because my doctor had trouble getting the needle into the port. Off to X-Ray I go to make sure everything is okay, low and behold my internal stitches have separated and my port is backwards!! I was devastated.....bless my doctor cause she felt so bad for me since she had to explain the only way to fix it is another surgery that takes about 15 minutes.. She says this sometimes happens or with my exercise I pulled to hard and they separated. I'm still somewhat crushed about this and just don't know what to do next..

Has this happened to anyone else??

It's not happened to me, but I read about similar happening here a lot. It seems port flips are a lot more common than band slips. Thankfully, as your doctor said, port flips are a very quick and easy fix.

I know there's quite a few on these forums who've had this happen. Hopefully, someone chimes in and shares their story with you.

In the search bar you can simply type in port flipped and the threads will come up. Good luck to you.

      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.
