Port Pain after the Horizontal Mambo:) Adults Only!!



Recommended Posts

Well I'm 19 days post op and feeling fabulous so I decide to get a little frisky with my DBF:wub:. We've already "danced" since my surgery with no complaints so I was all for hitting the ole horizontal mambo dance floor.

Well apparently I got a little TOOO frisky cause today all around my port site is soooo sore.

On my way to work this morning I called him and told him that I didn't know what the heck I did, but my port site was aching. Well he reminded me of our escapades from yesterday.:)

So just a warning to all you Victorious Valentines out there, it might be a good idea to let ur dance partner do the leading for a little while.:rolleyes:

Same thing happened to me this weekend jloby!! My confidence took over and then I took over my DH.:sneaky: I'm sure the couple glasses of wine I drank gave me the liquid courage to get all sassy with my bad self. DH was lovin' it...but my port area was pretty sore yesterday. I think I'll let him "take the lead" for awhile!! :drool:

Yes but isn't it nice to think that that is why you had port pain, over jeans rubbing and bending down to pick up something from the floor? Rest up.:sneaky:

Marathinner, funny how the men in our lives aren't worried about us hurting ourselves as long as they are benefitting from it. DBF was grinning from ear to ear when I told him

And ur right babedoe4, I could be sore for a lot worse reasons.

It was all worth it though, but I just thought I'd send out a warning :sneaky:

I guess this makes me glad my port is on the upper left side of the chest, right above "the girls" under the bra strap line.

That is such a unique place for the port. Does it show much there? I would imagine it makes it easier to access!

Nope, you cannot see it at all. I can feel it there, but so far, you can't see a thing.

My doctor places it there for that very reason, ease of access. Makes it easy to do a fill without xray.

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.

      Had a sleeve in 2017, lost over 100 pounds. Had a DS surgery this year (2025) for more sustainable weight loss. 🤞
