realize band pain after eating

Why does the area left of my port hurt so bad after I eat?  Anyone else have this problem?

How long have you had it? Where is your port located? Mine gets sore sometimes too...my dr says I could be eating to fast

I have had it since September '09, but just recently had a fill.  I have slowed down my eating and the pain has gone away.  Thank you.

It's possible that you are getting gas when you eat and that is pushing on the port area.  My doctor told me that as we lose weight and tighten the abs we can feel disomfort because the area the port is attached to tightening.

I have been exercising more lately and have really worked on tightening my abs,  That, and eating too fast may have been the reason it has been hurting.  Since I've slowed down and cut way back on what I was eating, things have gotten much better.  Thanks!
