Hey everyone! I have been having serious pain exactly where my port is for the past 2 days. I have been taking some left over pain medicine from a surgery that I had back in Jan. of this year but it's not seeming to help. I'm starting to wonder if something is going on with my port, like if it has slipped or even maybe has flipped or trying to? If it's not any better by tomorrow, I'm calling the doctors office. Just wondering if anyone out there in bandland has any suggestions as to what it could be. I had my surgery back in August of '08 by the way.

I HAVE MADE IT!!!

I just posted a thread wondering if anyone was having this problem. Is it kind of a burning sensation? Not awful, just enough to be irritating? I'm 14 months post op , I though I was beyond things like this happening.:confused:

You may have done some kind of exercse that has pulled the muscle to which the port is attached. You may even have somehow torn some of the stitches.
