Hi All,

I have been banded since April and all is going well. Today at work I noticed a pain in the middle right side of my stomach. Feels almost like a muscle strain but I haven't done anything. I have a sit down job banging on a keyboard all day. When I touch the area it feels almost like my port has drastically moved. Where my port normally is I cannot feel it.

I know its all speculation but do you think my port separated from the muscle wall?

Thanks,, Jim

Wow Jim, kinda scary!

I noticed the other night that my port seemed more mobile than usual. Maybe it's because I'm losing lbs and can feel it that much better? That's what I've convinced myself I'm going to run it past my surgeon next week at my fill appointment.

I wish I had advice for you, but let us know what your doctor thinks. Keep us posted.

OK, it's not the port. Once I laid down I could feel the port fine. I think I got a hernia. I have a Doc appointment on Tuesday and will seek some advice.
