    The port site took the longest for the pain to go away. I remember leaning on the counter by the sink and the pain shot through me. One day you wake up and the pain is gone but this site take the longest.

    I am 15 months out and i srill have some pain when i do strnuous exercise. The port is sewn into the muscle. It takes a long time to heal. I talked to my doc about it, and he said what i experience is normal. It used to happen more frequently, now its MAYBE. Monthly. Congrats on being on the losers bench!!

    I'm so glad I found your post, and the replies. I had my surgery on June 20th and have been having port area pain/pulling lately...was getting a bit freaked.

    I go in for my first fill today, so I will consult my Doc. just in case.
