Gosh, I don't know. Does it feel higher than it was before? I still get nervous with my port sometimes because it is hard for me to be still and not doing things. Sometimes It still gets sore and last night when I bent over to pick something up, I could feel it pulling on the muscle. I'm only 5 months post op so I will sure be glad when the port area and the big incision heal up. When do you go for your next fill? They should be able to tell you. Good luck, I hope it is ok.
