Pain In My Belly Button!

I was banded 3 weeks ago and had a fill 4 days ago.I've been feeling fine but last night while sitting I reached for something and after about 5 minutes I felt sharp pains on my belly button. I'm not sure if that has anything to do with the port. Has this happened to anyone?

    So, where is your port? Is it near your belly button? Do you have any other incisions (port or otherwise) near your belly button?

Port is near right "last " rib. I leaned over the console in my Honda to reach other door handle and it reminded me to not do that again and walk around car next time. Just always remember the stomach is like another muscle rest it go to liquids for a few days.

Are you saying that everyone's port is near the right "last" rib? That's just not true. Mine's just below my waistline, to the right of my navel. My best friend's port is in the center of her chest, just below her bra line.
