Does anybody get an occasional vague pain which kind of feels like a shock?

Hello fellow bandsters. I have been having some strange sudden vague pains on my upper obdomen where the lapband is placed I suppose. It comes and goes and somtimes it comes when I make a sudden movement? Is that the lapband? Can anybody feel thier band? It kinds of freaks me out.

I don't get the shocky pain.. but there are times when I feel like I am more acutely aware of my band. Vague is a good word indeed. I shrug it off cause after all there is a foreign body in me:tongue_smilie:

Mine is below port about 6 inches...Dr told me it is most likely scar tissue

This is where my pain is when it "shocks" me.

Mine is also about 6 inches below the port, but I haven't asked the doc about it. Figured it was gas or something. It's only occasional, but it's a shocking pain that definitely makes me take notice! Hmm...may be asking the doc about this next time. :frown:

I get something like that in my port area as well. It is like a twing or shock kind of felling at the port site. I thought it was just me. Surely its nothing major.

I had the same thing for a few months after surgery. Sharp shooting pains below my port. My doctor said it was most likely the muscle tissue healing from the cuts to the abdomen.
