Hernial Incision?

[robekk 0]

I had lap band surgery on 7-7-08 and have been doing great, no complications whatsoever. Until now, I may have overdone it by lifting my suitcase and a cooler weighing more than ten pounds. The largest incision in the center of my abdomen has a hard area under the skin to one side. It feels sore ocasionally. Is there anyone with this concern who can provide advice?

Could this your port? I got my band on 7-11 and I can feel my port under my largest incision.

I hope that it is. It has had me concerned this evening, but talking to others on this website has made me feel better. I did not relize my port was located there. I have not had a fill yet. THX.:thumbup:

Yep, it sounds like your port to me too.

My doc gave no weight lifting restrictions, and I've been carrying around my 22 pound daughter since three days post surgery. It's more than likely your port. :thumbup:
