Does anyone else have sensitive scar tissue, especially around the port area? I'm scheduled to have my port resutured and scar tissue removed next month because of its sensitivity. Even when the area's been numbed, I feel pain when I get fills.

Also, I've been experiencing a lot of intense needle-like pain over the past few days in my port/scar tissue area. Am I the only one?

I guess I'm just looking for someone to commiserate with!

Best of luck with your surgery....are you going low profile port? I need the same surgery you are having but will wait until after my TT surgery. I hate all the hard scar tissue but worry it will come back. Has your doc addressed that issue?

No, I'm pretty sure I'll have the standard port rather than the low-profile one still.

As far as I know, it's a kind of "remove scar tissue and hope it stays gone" type thing. My main problem is its so-called sensitivity--it's getting to a point where it hurts quite a bit all the time in that area now.
