New Patient


Recommended Posts

Hi I am a newbie to the lap band. I had my surgery on July 11th and I go in for my first fill on Aug. 13th. So far things have gone well except I have been expericening a pain in my left abdomen. It feels like the pain you get when you run or walk to long. kind of like a knot. Has anyone else experienced this. and what might it be? Thank You.

if it feels like you have a stitch in your side... well... you kinda do :)

Its pain in your port area - pretty common! the more you do, the more it tugs as it is settling into place. If it becomes swollen, red, or hot, you need to call one of the doctors.
