I'm having real intense port pain. Anybody know something ? I sometimes have some pain around t/port.Doc said that was normal.(maybe for a yr.after) BUT Never as bad as right now. Everytime I take a breath..I wanna scream!!

When my port flipped, I didn't have extreme pain but I did have pain.  You may have popped a stitch or all of them.  Worth calling the doc about and having a fluoro done.

 ScratchingI really have no idea what's wrong. I called the hospital & the surgeon on call happened to be Holloway (my doc. ) He wants me to come out to Ogallala in the morning.

I guess we really didn't discuss this at lunch, huh?  About 3 weeks after surgery, I felt a big pop and I called the doctor the next day.  We guessed it was my port moving.  I had some back and muscle pain.  They surgically went in and fixed it 5 months after my surgery.  It is so much better now!  I am so glad we fixed it.  In addition, they had a hard time with my fills since it was flipped. They said that there was really no specific reason that it did that.  However, my non-medicine degree opinion is that they released me to exercise too early.

LOL no we didn't talk about this at lunch.  Interesting though.  I guess you never know what might happen.
