Tingling and slight numbness at port site?

[Lorelei 0]

It's day there post op and I'm feeling A LOT better but I have a little bit of numbness and tingling at the site of my larger incision (where the port is). Has anyone experienced this before? I'm thinking maybe I'm just sitting funny and can just walk it off but I wanted to check with you guys to keep me fro panicking (I've done that a few times in the last two days).

Any thoughts?

I will have had my band 2 weeks this monday,,,,yay puree! can't wait! lol...I had pain, pulling, tightness, tingling, and numbess at my port site. It gets a little better everyday. I was so concerned, it seemed everyone on here felt 'great' after 2 to 5 days...I was panicked too! My Dr said some people heal slower than others. For some reason, the last 2 days (still same symptoms, but much less) I am feeling MUCH better. Anyway, sounds normal, don't panic, and good luck!!!
