Strange Pain

I get this this weird kind of pressure and tingling on my left side periodically through the day. It almost kind of feels like when your pregnant and the baby is pushing or kicking on one spot. It is kind of close to my port but lower and more on my side. It usually happens when i am sitting and if i lay back it stops. Could it be the tubing going were it shouldn't be. Has anyone else experienced this? It isn't really painful but it is getting really annoying. I am my dr 2nd band patient so i don't feel like he'll know what it is. I'd appreciate any input. Thanks!

I have experienced this as well and my surgeon told me it was most likely the formation of scar tissue and the tubing is irritating it. she was not concerned about it, so that was a relief! Hope this helps~!

I found I have a lot of 'strange pains' associated with the band. None of them are constant, they are set off by how I am sitting or laying, and if I shift around it goes away. My brain makes me think it's just the fact there is an OBJECT in my body, and when I squish it against my stomach, liver, etc.. it's going to hurt!

That's my excuse. :)
