March 26, 201214 yr I can feel mine. I was shocked when I went for my first fill yesterday how deep it is
March 26, 201214 yr I can't feel mine....yet!! but I have a lot of weight to lose...I can feel it when the needle hits the side of it though it feels funny!!
March 26, 201214 yr Mine is right below the 1/4" layer of skin. It sticks out like a big lump! Like there is a golf ball there. I can rub my finger around it and feel every nook and cranny, including the tube. But that's what happens when all the fat on your belly disappears, and your stomach gets rock hard.
March 26, 201214 yr Yes, I can feel my port. Last summer when I got into the swimming pool, mine would stick out like a hernia. I guess it doesn't like to be cold! I actually like to feel it; it is a reminder of my goal. Good luck with your weight loss. By he way, there are very few things that I can see the port through clothing! Karen
March 26, 201214 yr I can feel mind more after 65 pounds lost but it does by no means stick out. If I ever loose this over 70 pounds it might. I think it was pretty deep when installed so maybe not. And by feeling I mean I feel for it with my hand. I don't feel it constantly like some kind of foreign body like a splinter. It doesn't bother me and the seat belt isn't a problem. Kind of like feeling your ribs under your skin.
March 27, 201214 yr I could always feel mine once I went in for my first fill and knew where it was but now after losing all of the weight (150lbs), you can see the bump all the time. It gets a little annoying explaining it to people but hey I'll take that over the alternative!
March 27, 201214 yr yeah, I can feel mine. I just discovered it about 3 weeks ago. I couldn't feel it before I lost all the weight. Thank God my doc could find it though! lol
