I'm 6 days postop and this is the strangest feeling. was like this from the beginning and i thought it would have gone away by now. the only incision that is sore is the port site. i take that back...the incision is fine..... the feeling is from the port itself....its the strangest feeling....not really pain, but it feels like the port is "loose". when i walk, i have to hold my right side with either the pillow or with my hand. like i have to put pressure on it. it's hard to explain....just strange. anyone experience anything like this?

My port site was sore, but not in motion that I could feel. Hmmmm.

my first follow up appt is Thursday....i dont know if i should wait till then or call the office..... i dont want to seem like a lunatic.

I would call and tell them. You never know what they could say it is. This is a major thing and it is obviously concerning you so you should call. Good luck and let us know.

EEEWWW.......that just grossed me out. Is it all the time?

I have a lot of pressure and some mild soreness, but nothing like that. I would call them.

You know not to worry you but I got that feeling about 2months after and I went to a near by speacilist and my port has come loose and I have not yet had it re attached he said it would be ok because there is one stitch in it still but eventually I will have it re tacked down..There is alot of soreness and tenderness often, daily.. But my mom had it the same day and she was really sore for about a month or so.. Good Luck!

I am 6 weeks post-op and my port site was tender and hurt when I walked or drove over bumps, etc... until 4 weeks post-op.

My port felt like this mainly because I was a dummy that night in the hosptial and tried to roll over...I yanked it all but good.

What I did was to get one of those girdle things that goes around your middle? Like a tube top only lower? Yeah, I got one of those and wore it at night (couldn't wear it in the day cuz it rolled up at the bottom). But it gave me good pressure on the muscle at night and really helped.

My .02 but I really agree with the others...you should talk to the doc. NEVER hesitate to call the doc!!!!!

wow..just stopped in before going to bed and i cant believe all the replies... i have a doc appt at 130 tomorrow, so will hopefully find out whats going on. Ill let you know. I did "try to roll over" on the night i came home from the hospital and that was definitely a no-no! the girdle thingie sounds like a good idea! I must admit that it did feel somewhat better today. thanks for all the support guys!!
