hello everyone, i'm new to this forum and joined because I have some concerns afer just recently having the band surgery done on 1/11/08!! I've lost 10 pounds so far and feeling great with the exception of some pain at the port area. After the first week, I felt great!! Then a couple days later, I think I pushed myself to far, I've had pain in the port area. It hurts the most first thing in the morning, after a couple hours it isn't so bad. I work at home so i'm lucky and can relax a bit when needed. I called the dr and they belive I irritated the sutures that are holding the port in place and the only thing I can do is let it heal... Is anyone or has anyone had the same problem??? Part of me is nervous, part of me is not. The dr doesn't seem to be concerned.... Should I??
