Port Placement

Wish I could pick the location of my port. It is at the level on my stomach that I "lean" on thing. Like the sink to do dishes or the vanity table when I am doing my hair and makeup. My port area is so sore from this.

Does anyone else have this issue ?

my port is right where my underwire bra hit and the more i loose the more it is annoying!

Mine is right under my underwire too! Just got banded 7/31, I've been keeping my shirt under my bra for extra cushion. Any other suggestions?

I am answering this on my mobile so cant read your profile to see how long you have been banded but I can tell you mine seems to have moved... whether is actually moved or the fat around it shrunk and it moved it I can't answer however I know it was uncomfortable in the beginning and now not so much ... nothing that bothers me in anyway

I was banded June 29 and I have some days where I can really feel my port and other days I have to push into my stomach to feel it. Anyone else ever notice that before?

mine is more of right below where my 'leaning' place is, thankfully. I'm so glad it isn't where my bra underwire is, that would drive me absolutely insane.

Mine is on my chest, like under my collarbone, right above my left breast... So thankfully I don't have that problem! Mine only bothers me when I sleep on that side in a certain position.
