I couldn't find my port either. I am 4 weeks post op and just had my first fill. Well the first that I knew about anyway. There was 5cc in my band after surgery. I was so worried I flipped it all month. But laying on my back it felt like a flat wide disc that was close to my diaphragm. But when I stood up and she put a bandaid over where the fill was it was below my large incision about 1/2 way between it and my belly button. Mine is very flat and hidden well. I only felt it pushing down hard and rubbing around. Good luck! I don't think I would have found it without the nurse pract. showing me.

My port is right above my left breast. The more weight I lose I can fill it better.

you have 5 holes in you from the surgery right? Do you have a slight slit anywhere on the stomach area? If you do then my guess is that's where your port is.

If you don't have one,,,,, then I can't help you.

Hope you find it.

I have one below my breasts about an inch and then the other is through my belly button.

Everyone's seems to be different... guess I'll wait for the dr to tell me.

Thank you!
