Kinked Port

[nursinggal 1]

Has anyone besides me had a kinked port? I had to go back in to have a second surgery 6 weeks post op from my lap band. I wondered had this happened to anyone else.

I went to a new doc today and she said that the doc I went to does not attach the port to the fascia part of the stomach, therefore making it difficult to find and giving the port the ability to flip and move around. Has anyone heard of this? I am so glad I am at a new doctor!!!

I found out that I have a leak in my tubing. Had my band for 18 mo. first problem. Was very sick in Jan., had to have fill taken out had to eat and drink lots to get built back up. Everything almost shut down, so had to do this. New fill in May, didn't take had to have xray couple weeks ago. Now have to get fixed, no big problem, other than this no problems at all.
