Just wanted to find out if anyone else has experienced what I have this week. We have been at the beach all week. When I swim in the ocean, my port hurts, like it is moving around. It just feels really weird.:thumbs_up: Wondered if this was because of the salt. Anyone else had this feeling?:confused2:

Is the incision completely healed and closed?

Remember the new skin on the scar will be tender. Salt tends to be drying. If you're wearing a two piece and the scar is getting sun burned, that is new skin!! Are you talking about getting tossed about in the rough surf? That could make you a bit sore. The Water has more force than you think.

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

      The 14th was my day. I am home and recovery is going pretty smooth. They even let me walk out of the hospital. Picture of me in recovery curtesy of my boyfriend lol.
