Am almost 2 years out and have lost 120 pounds so far.Today I noticed that where my port is, it aches. It is not a sharp pain, just a dull ache. It's happened before and has gone away but today it is really noticeable. Maybe all the rain in the air? I don't know but would REALLY appreciate if anybody has experienced this and if they found out what it was. Thanks.

This is the first time I've been on the website in months. I had my lapband placed about 13 months ago. Now, like you, all of a sudden I now have pain around my port. Again, like you, it's not a sharp pain but feels bruised or something. I'd like to know also if anyone else has experience this and if it finally gets better on its own....

One year out and had that about a month ago.........weird. I certainly know I have a port!!

The only thing that I can guess is that this happens sometimes when I've eaten too much. But I don't know if that is the answer. What do you think?

Did it just stop hurting on its own? I'm hoping this will just pass. It's so tender around that spot....it IS weird!!

Yes. It will stop hurting. Just one day you will think," Oh, it' not hurting." and you will be relieved. At least I was. It may come back and then disappear. But it will go away.

Thank you! I'm so glad to get your response. I was hoping that this was fairly common. I won't worry about it now; it may even be a little bit better already....

I had almost forgotten about this post. I first asked this question almost a month ago. I am glad you are feeling better. I have come to the conclusion that it isn't anything dangerous. Next time it starts, ask yourself if you've eaten too much. That is usually, but not always how it starts for me. Anyway, enjoy your weekend.

Thank you - I've just had a lot of tenderness around it for days now. Hopefully, it's getting a little better so I'm trying not to worry about it.

I have the same thing. It has been about a week now. I called the doctor and he did not seem concerned asked me if I wanted to wait a couple days then come see him. I made an appointment but cancled it today as I decided maybe I was over reacting. I see him on the 23rd so will bring it up then just hoping it will go away.

I too have this irritating pain, and it tends to occur when I eat too much. It goes away then comes back days/weeks later. I mentioned it to my Dr this past week, and he said as long as it wasn't stabbing pain and there is no redness or swelling, I shouldn't worry
