My port used to lay flat under my tummy skin. After I began increasing (slightly) my exercise duration and intensity I began to feel a small "tick" in my side or a slight burning near my port. Not continual--just a few times a day.
Now my port is angled inward--slanting into my body. I called surgeon and the PA said it might be that one suture has slipped, but no need to worry as long as it can be probed for fill (which it can)
Anyone else have a shift in their port location. I'm not one to put my entire faith in band info a PA gives.
If there is some activity I need to avoid or should I go back to wearing my baggy jeans--sometimes my new jeans bind a bit--they aren't tight, but definitely bind if I sit too long.
