The day after being banded I was trying to stay active and when I bent over it felt like my stitches were pulled apart. So now when I bend over, I hold the area of my port to keep from the pain and sensation of feeling like my tissue is tearing from the inside. I thought I'd give it a couple of days to see if it got better, because everything else was going really well. I finally emailed the Dr's nurse yesterday evening (Sunday) and she emailed back (within 20 mins, as they are awesome like that) and told me I am probably catching the port and can also have muscle spasms after doing that and I should not be concerned, it will heal.
