I think that's perfectly normal and you have nothing to worry about. You're only 3 weeks out from surgery. It takes time to heal. Give yourself plenty of that.

The port area is the sorest area after surgery and the discomfort there lasts the longest of any discomfort. I finally realized I couldn't 'feel it' after about a month and a half. It definitely takes a while, so just be patient! (:

I was banded on the 7th of feb.. I still have to walk slow cause if I start to walk to fast my port area feels real sore from the inside. the outer part not so much but if I try to push even just a little on it .. it hurts.. I can feel my port when I'm laying flat it feels weird..

can't wait for my 1st fill!!

I couldn't lay on my side or stomach for a month after surgery...but now I can comfortably. Sounds normal to me, but if you're worried that something is wrong it wouldn't hurt to give your doctor a call.

I had surgery 12/26 sore up to at least 6 wks.

use a pillow held tightly against your belly when getting up or down

it really helps
