Does Your Port Move?

Hi.. I am just wondering if someone else has had the port seem to move.. Mine seems to have moved from my side towards the center of stomach and I am wondering if this is normal.. Do they do anything to keep it in place?

You were just recently banded so I'm guessing that what happened is that what you were feeling was scar tissue. Right now is about the right time for it to have healed and the lump goes away. With weight loss you can likely feel where your port really is.

Hi.. well no I have always been able to feel it and know what it is. It has just moved further toward my belly button. I see the doctor this week and will see what he says...
