funny feeling in my belly



Recommended Posts

I have been having this feeling of something fluttering or moving on the middle left side of my belly. i am just scared because it happens when I go to sit, sometimes when i breathe, or when i walk. I have heard of the port flipping and I am just scared. Has this happened to anyone else or is this something I should ask the doc about. It's sat and i dont see him till wed im just scared.

Where is your port located? My port was stitched but somehow used to still move sometimes when I bend down, stood up, bend a certain way, if my jeans were pushing on it etc.

I used to be able to push down and move my port a bit too. This was a very strange moving or popping feeling. My doc checked it out and said it was nothing to worry about.

Maybe it is your port that you are feeling?

If it is just a light fluttering feeling it may just be Fluid moving through the stoma after you change positions.

Does it feel like percolation?

or it could be a muscle twitch... I get the ALL THE TIME now. I found I was "sucking in" a lot after surgery because it hurt my incisions to have my belly hanging down and pulling on them, so often when I would sit down and relax my stomach muscles they would just start twitching like mad. You could see and feel it sometimes. Mainly on the sides...
