Port Site Pain

I had my surgery a week ago tomorrow. The only pain I really have is around where my port is. Is this normal?

    Yes normal, give it a few weeks you will forget it is there until you lose enough weight for it to stick out or bump it against something.

    Very normal for awhile it took a few months for my port area to be not so sensitive. It may also be sensitive at fills/adjustments for a day. Hang in there and heal:)
