If you could move your port would you?



Recommended Posts

Where is your port now and where would it be if you could change it?

I have an opportunity to move my port location. I am on the fence.

I'd be interested in where my choices would be.

Mine is to the left of my belly button by about 3 inches and a little below my waist.

The only thing I don't like about its location is that sometimes the waistband of my pants bothers it. Low-rise pants are fine and looser are good. But if at all tight and higher waisted, ugh.

Mine is also about 3 inches left of my bellybutton, but on my waistline so when I eat, I have to losen my belt. It doesn't hurt or anything like that, but I can tell it's there.

Hi:

My port is just below my rib cage in the middle. I love it being there because I never have to think about anything rubbing on it. Also, it lays nice and flat there.

Best wishes to you.

Mine is to the right of the belly button and up between my waist and ribcage....can feel it with effort, so far it's not noticeable and wastebands don't bother it at all, but it's low enough bras don't rub either.

What about when the girls sag even further? :thumbdown:

Even tho my port is at waist level, I have to tell you that at the beginning of this journey, it started just to the left of my sternum near my rib cage. Has been interesting seeing the scar move from under my left boob to close to my waist as I've lost the weight.

I hate where my port is...right midriff. Looks like a golf ball or alien trying to break through!!!!! When I am sure I am doing well maintaining I am going to have it moved and replaced with a smaller port.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
