I was banded in August and every once in awhile I have some pain there. I asked the doctor the other day if it was normal and he said yes. It's attached to a muscle and when you do certain things, it can be just the way you slept, you may have some pain, but it will go away and then come back again, but he says it's normal. So I am going with that. Good Luck

I was banded in Sept 09. No pain until the last few weeks. Inside at port area. Same with me - no pain on the outside. Comes and goes. I have left a msg at my dr's office for them to call me. Thanks Happy Girl - hope that's what my dr tells me.

This happens to me only when I've overeaten. I've learned to take it as a sign.
