Port sticking way up

[farmgirl04 231]

Hi All, I guess this is actually a good problem, but a problem none the less. I've lost over 100 pounds, am 8 pounds below my doctors goal and 8 pounds above my goal. I had a complete Tummy Tuck in December. As I get closer to goal my port sticks out more and more. I understand why, but this is so annoying. I seriously can't wear tight clothing without it poking up. It is about an inch higher than the surrounding area. Anyone else deal with this issue? I haven't been to my doc since last fall due to many, many issues. I see him again in two weeks, unless something else comes up, and will ask him about it then. I'm just trying to go in informed from other veterans here.

Thanks!

I don't know which port you have, but they do have a lower profile one. You might want to discuss that with your doctor next time you see him. And as you say, it's a GOOD problem to have - congrats!
