IndioGirl55 32 Posted October 13, 2007 I was banded on Oct 3 and returned to work on Oct 9. I felt real good and was bored at home. I stand on my feet all day but I have been taking frequent breaks. Today is day 10 after surgery and I woke up with soreness around my port. I am going to work but my call it a short day. Is this soreness normal? Yes Marcy - the port site hurt the longest... I'm almost 3 months out and i can't remember when it stopped - but give it about 1 month... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
