Pain on port side after eating or drinking?

[MandyHotz]

I had my surgery 10/3 and just started eating regular food Tuesday. I noticed this while on the liquid portion of the diet as well, I am noticing it more now. Whenever I eat or drink a meal I get a cramping feeling under/around my port. Is this normal? Its not painful just uncomfortable. Any thought?

Thanks

Mandy, f you don't get a response here try lapbandtalk.com and you should get a reply in a very short time. As I indicated in our correspondence this is not an issue that I have had to deal with, not yet I should say, never can tell. Best wishes! Your VG friend. Kevin

Mandy,

You should give Dr. Ortiz a call. He was very responsive when I had an issue one week after surgery.
