Not a March 09 bandster but just to ease your mind...You probably just used a muscle that is sutured and not healed yet. This is normal, it takes a full six weeks to heal. Listen to your body, don't push yourself...if anything causes pain stop right away (as if you would keep doing it). The port site related pain lasts the longest because there is so much nerve and muscle involved.

Thanks Jodi.....I appreciate your info.....The docs office agreed, but said if it doesn't get better to go in for a cat scan.....
