Can anyone else feel their Ports?

I can see mine sticking out some. I had my surgery on 10/5. I am just wondering if I need to lose more weight before it is hidden, or if it will always be sticking out. It is flat but you can see the raised section under my skin where it is. Just curious.

NOPE CAN,T SEE MY PORT BUT CAN FEEL IT. WAS TOLD THAT AS I LOSE WEIGHT I WILL BE ABLE TO FEEL IT MORE, IT CREEPS ME OUT A BIT WHEN I FEEL IT THOUGH.

Hi:

Can't see it, but it feels like I have a flat rock under my skin. My port is just below my rib cage in the middle.

Good luck.

I can feel mine if I am standing up. I can see mine when I am laying down. I have lost about 130 pounds. The more weight you loose the more you can see it. My port is located below my ribcage and with the laws of gravity the flabby skin and fat I need to loose all hang down. The thing that really freaked me out was when I could actually feel my sternum (chest bone0 :>

Shhh,

I was banded on the 2nd, I dont Know if its the port I'm seeing but the area the port is is larger than the rest of my stomich, It seems quite strange to me I've lost about 25 lbs and that one spot, does not seem much smaller than it was before the surgury although I've lost weight right below the port sight.

Hope this helps

Hello! I was banded on October 22. I tried to feel my port while lying down. I checked the whole belly area, but I couldn't feel anything. My BMI is not very high, so there is not THAT much fat there. ( I have about 40 pounds lose.)

I just want to be reassured that the port IS there somewhere!

Thanks for any response! So happy to be banded and to start my journey! Good luck to you all!:clap2:

That is exactly what I have. I have also lost around the same amount of weight. I guess we will have to wait & see.
