ReadySteadyGo 8 Posted April 16, 2008 Does anyone else still feel twinges when they bend over or lay on their sides? I do. I was banded late in the month but I thought by now I wouldn't be able to feel it. I am scared their is something wrong, but I just wanted to know if this normal. :confused2: I haven't said anything until now but I need to know something before I go to the Dr. tomorrow.

Ezma 2 Posted April 16, 2008 I was banded on 2-18 and occasionally get some discomfort near my port. It's more like the port digging into me. It's very mild and not that often though. Quick call to the doctor's office might be the best thing to ease your mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
4jin 0 Posted April 16, 2008 Funny I asked my doc that same question. Some days I can really feel and am paranoid about it ....other days...I don't feel a thing...but I love my love affair with it...I have it and nobody knows! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HappyOne 0 Posted April 17, 2008 I have a similar problem. Sometimes if I do alot of walking I can feel a pulling, no like a side stitch. I asked the doctor on my last visit and she said that it could be a stitch that is too tight or pulling. She said to give it a few more weeks and if it didn't get better they could go back in and clip that stitch. For me it isn't that troublesome and unless it gets a lot worse I doubt I will do anything about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
babedoe4 5 Posted April 17, 2008 I still can't sleep all the way on my right side. If I catch myself there in the middle of the night and I am awoken because of pressure, I either turn to my back or put a body pillow under my right side to support where my port is.
