last weekend i was really stressed out because my dh is a complete idiot. anyways, i couldnt eat a thing, nothign solid. so for prolly 4 days i didnt. mind you, i tried a bite or two each day but wound up pb'ing or just out and out vomitting. i was throwing up so bad! i really didnt think it was possible any more, and it was different then before band vomitting, very noisy and just nasty. i was throwing up yellow foam--stomach acid. it was horrible.
ok, back on track...so now my stomach really hurts around the port. it is super tender...even my jeans being done up can make it ache. i figure i probably just pulled it from the retching, right? if i caused a slip or something like that, it would be a different pain? the port is stitched in and all the heaving and stuff prolly just pulled it and its tender? i dont know... maybe i should call the doctor. only its saturday and they arent open.... hmmm, this sucks.

If you are able to drink liquids without barfing, you are ok to wait to call the doc on Monday. I just know that after 2 months, my port site is a little sore - esp when I wear jeans. Can you feel the surface of it when you lie on your back and tense your abd muscles? My guess, too, is it would be sore from retching...Good Luck! Don't let ole DH get you down for too long!

I would definitely go back to clear liquids for a couple of days until your stomach/esophagus is able to settle down. It may be enflamed and irritated from the retching. Call your doctor on Monday and let them know what is going on and that you aren't able to keep anything down.
