Hi nope I can't see it or feel it. With my old port I could feel it by touching my belly. It also hurt. This smaller port is much better and other than being so close to my belly button I am very happy with it!!

You will be fine! It's much easier to recover from than the implant!

Good luck!

I'm SO GLAD someone asked that. I just had my port revision/replacement last week. It doesn't hurt nearly as bad as the original surgery. I just hope the scars heal!

I HAVE A STRANGE QUESTION, after my lap band I couldn't pee very well. It's been 5 days since the revision and I can go per but it takes forever! Did this happen to u?

After mine moved, I was uncomfortable for a few days but felt awesome!

FYI all. I ended up having to get a catheter put in for a few days to jump start my kidneys. I can pee now and feel much better! They said that the anesthesia during the surgery put my kidneys to sleep and it took the cath to wake them up!
