My port is tilted

[dogluvr 1]

Should I be freaking out????? Does this lead to a flipped port?

Port problems are not really anything to freak out over unless it's an infection. What did your doctor say?

What is a sleeve? How is it different from a band?

A sleeve is where they surgically make your stomach smaller, remove Ghrelin (a hormone that tells you that you are hungry, sleeved people do not experience hunger for the most part), and there is no aftercare, no maintenance whatsoever. I love it!

A little better and faster weight loss than a band and the fewest long term risks and complications of banding and bypass.

My port has been tilted as long as I have had the band.. since 9-05.. It can be a challenge to get a fill done... Make sure you tell the person doing the fill that your port is tilted..
