Any Band to Sleeve Revisioners? I am in pain!

[MazRob]

Hi guys, I had my band to sleeve revision 10 days ago. Everything has healed fine except the port site, it is still really sore and I can't bend properly. I spoke to my surgeon's PA today and she was not concerned but I just wondered if anyone else had experienced this and how long it lasted.

Thanks xxx

I'm a bypass revision and I've had on/off issues with the largest scar where the port was, I think it was initially more sensitive as they use a heated scalpel to cut the port from your abdomen. Six months on and it feels like it's internally tugging now. Mine hasn't been agonising sore at any time though.

I wasn't a revision but I did have that pain and its very common they are very brutal in theatre im afraid. Im 6 weeks out tomorrow and its only this past week that im not in pain so I wouldn't worry to much just take it easy and rest a lot
