So, I have had my band and I love it by the way for more than 3 years. My weight has gone from 325+ to now 225 and I have and do work our 4 times a week, nothing to strenous, walking very fast and toe touches as well as arm swinging fro rotation of waist. NOW, I am feeling like something is wrong cause of this tender area. I can feel my port but feels like it is not laying as it was before. I can and do eat solids and soups porpotionately and they stay down so I am not sure waht is going on. The tenderness is just below my center - top of stomach and the tenderness is and has been there for 3 days now. What do or would you do. I know about -run to the doctor and have it checked so please do net tell me that. Just trying to find feed back from anyone who may have experienced this in their journey and what their results were for resolve. Thanks in advance.

i am experieincing similar symptoms and the soreness is worse today after skiing yesterday. i just recently started exercising again, nothing too strenuous either. but, a few weeks ago i was sitting at computer at home and leaned a certain way and all of a sudden i felt pain at the portsite and i couldnt really move. now today i can see it popping out. i am calling my doctor tomortow or is it normal if you are using those mucles again

For the both of you, you should call your doctor right away and set an appointment. It maybe imposed some serious threat that you don't know. As cliche as it sound, prevention is always better than cure.
