about my port flip

The doctors arent really clear about why or how it flipped completely over. It can be from lifting to much too fast. I really tried not to but I am a student (heavy books) and a mother of 2 a million pets laundry ect...it can be 1 of many things. I'll find out today when we are having the surgery to put it back in oits right place..hopefully this time it stays put!@!!!!:thumbup::sad:
