Please let me know if you have ever done this. Last Saturday, I walked for an hour on the elliptical and then in the park. The next day it began, bad port pain almost the way we felt after surgery. I haven't been able to return to the gym since ... I'm now on week 5 and had been feeling totally healed and fine until this occurred.

Can anyone tell me if they have had pain and it was due to a flipped port?? I read nothing about people being in pain from flipping their port, but that they don't have much restriction and I assumed I had zero restriction because I haven't had a fill. Also the band is totally empty, not even a small fill ( I was told by the surgeons office.)

I am calling the office on Monday for an X-ray I'm scared

Thanks for listening and any feedback is appreciated.

Mine was sideways when I went in for my first fill. The PA had to press on it to be able to reach the front. I was numbed for the shot so i didn't feel it too bad until later and the next day the whole area was bruised. I still feel some discomfort when I bent too far down.

It sounds as though you strained the muscles around your port but I am only a stranger from the other side of the world on the internet reading your post. I am not a dr. If I was you, I would prefer to get the diagnosis of my dr.

I hope it is nothing serious and that your dr can provide you with some quick reassurance.

I have never heard of this but I do think you are on the right track by seeing you doc's office. Take it easy until then and good luck. Hope you feel better.

My port flipped completely over, no pain at all, only way we found out was couldn't di a fill and fluro showed it upside down. Had revision Jan 236 and all things good.

Try not to worry !

Thanks for sharing your experiences. It's a little bit of a relief hearing that there's no pain involved so maybe I did something else. Hoping I didn't bust internal stitches or anything :/ will keep you posted.
