Where is your port??

Mine is located just under my last rib on my right side. Unfortunately, when I exercise and it involves bending at the waist it will actually rub against my ribs and start bothering me. Anyone else have this problem?

I had my surgery on Wednesday, Feb 23, and after reading of the placements of some of the ports, I just asked my Dr. if he wouldn't put it at my waistband. i have a naturally high waste and I didn't want to start wearing jeans later on and feel it cutting into the port area. Jeans always seem a little tighter when you first put them on. So, my surgion put mine about 3 inches above my belly button and slightly to the left. I also have a question. For some reason I had the idea that they were only going to put 3 little holes in me plus the port site. I have the port site plus 5 other holes. Does everyone else have this many incision places?
