Pain ( Is It My Port Or Band )

I had a fill 4 days ago...2 days ago while I was bent over sorting clothes for laundry as I was coming up I felt like a ripping feeling in my stomach to the left ( the area between my belly button and stomach so I'm assuming its my port ) it has been sore ever since, has anyone had this experiance before?

You should probably check with your doctor. I had pain in a similar location yesterday but it was significaly below where my port is and i don't feel it's realated at all for me. i went to the doctors last night and for me they think an intestinal infection. I didn't have a ripping senseation or anything though.

My friend leaned over a counter and felt a ripping sensation at the port site and it ended up being that some of the stitches holding the port in place had ripped.

In other words, who knows! Get it looked at just to be on the safe side :)

Good luck!

Sounds as though you have probably pulled the muscle that the port is attached to.
