Guest guest Posted May 28, 1999 Report Share Posted May 28, 1999 Hoi Janet, indeed the doctor had quite a lot of trouble filling my band for the first time. The port has twisted slightly, he managed to locate it but had to try a couple of times, ... I talked to him this week about this and he told me not to worry, it is possible to reach the port and do the fills. Next time he will see to it that he has the righ needles from the beginning (slighly longer). Next fill is June 15, i'll keep you all informed how it will go PS My doctor is not dr Fox, I had the op in Belgium -----Oorspronkelijk bericht----- Van: Janet Edmonds timsbury.stores@...> Aan: bandsters (AT) onelist (DOT) com bandsters (AT) onelist (DOT) com> Datum: donderdag 27 mei 1999 22:56 Onderwerp: Re: Port Placement > > >I think that was in Belgium (?) and that does worry me.
