I'm having sharp pain at my port site when I breath deep or I pick something up using my abdominals, post op 14months...I'm freaking out! Anyone had this at all?

I would call your doctor ASAP. I don't think anyone here can know what the problem is. Even if someone experienced (what sounds like) the same thing, the cause could have been something completely different than what may be going on with you.

I agree call you surgeon not your regular doc

Call your doc and let us know

I called my "emergency number" and talk to some idiot who's NOT a bariatric doc at all, he said wait till Monday and see my doc. But I have a gut feeling something is really wrong, and I live in a very small town in Iowa, my surgeons office is over an hour away. None of the ER docs around here know jack....very frustrating, can't find anything about it anywhere online either. When you all get fills does your Doc seem to get the needle in a little, and then kinda "poke" around to get it in the port? He seems a little rough, my last fill was like 3-4wks ago, andsince then iI had one or two days with very slight pain, but today has been awful, can't even arch my back without feeling a sharp ass pain!

^{I can so relate to being so far away from your surgeon and how hard it is to try to explain to reg docs. At the very least call the doc office and leave a message with his nurse and they will get back to you.}
