It did not cost me any more that I know of. I don't know if the ap port and they low profile port are the same????? Maybe someone else could answer that question for you. The ap port is a fairly new port by INAMED. My doctor chose to use the small port. There is some good info on this site about the ap port. Do a search for it and read away. Best of luck on your surgery.

jmom710, You are right the staff at dr querry's office are great. Shannon has really made me feel comfortable about the surgery and recovery. I think a good relationship with your doc and staff plays a huge part in this process being successful

Ok, It's day number 2 and I am doing well. I am really sore. The place that hurts the worst is probably my middle back. Not sure why unless it's from laying on the operating table. Overall I am still doing great. I am fixing to try some chicken broth with unjury in it and see how i handle that.

Planning for a great day!!

Wow how exciting! I am scheduled for mine on Nov 13 and will have to begin my pre-op diet beginning Nov 3rd. I'm so not looking forward to that part but I do know how important it is.

Keep us posted on how you're doing...I will be following closely. :clap2:

I am feeling better each day. Yesterday we went to Walmart. Probably not a great idea for 1 day post op. I felt pretty rough last night, but I slept much better and am feeling good this morning. I am having a little bloody drainage from one of my incision sights. I don't know if that is of concern or not. I have a call in to my doctor. I am also going to start a thread to see if anyone has had that experience.

Tralynn - Your surgery will be here before you know it. Hang in there on the liquid diet. It doesn't last forever.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
