It took almost 6 weeks before my port did not bother me when bending over, twisting, etc. I am almost 4 months post surgery and I can still see the lump where my port is located.

I can't see mine at all, just a small incision.. never had staples at all. wonder why each surgeon does things so differently..? the only way I feel my port is if I push on it and tighten up my stomach...
