Okay, there's definitely a pea-sized hard round ball right under the skin of my port incision, and THAT is why my incision is popping out like a nipple! And I think this hard pea-thingy is what's causing my pain, like when it floats around to sensitive areas. The pea wants to come out of my incision! When I lay down, the pea hides in other places. But then it comes back to the surface and tries to escape from the port incision. Could this be a broken off piece from the band? I sure hope it's a floating piece of scar tissue. I used to have a round hard ball in my ankle, and the doc said it was formed after ankle trauma. They removed it with a tiny incision and a couple stiches. Anybody????? I can feel the pressure of it wanting to come out of the incision, but the incision is healed shut.

Yeah, I would ask the vet about it.

Babs, what are you trying to say? LOL!! :)

Alex, a long time ago it was my VET that diagnosed my problem. Kitty Milo was getting shots, and my vet is really cool so I showed her my port area. She diagnosed me and sent me immediatly to Urgent Care, where they confirmed her dx. I even asked the vet to treat me (considering she knows more than the rest of the docs here) but she said it would be illegal. Who cares!
