hard time finding my port

So, i went for my  3 check up and the Dr was ready to give me a fill bur couldn't find my port. i could feel her tapping it with the needle but she couldn't;t find the center. has this happened to you? just wondering. my next fill is the 30Th of December and I REALLY want a fill.
Thanks

My Dr wouldnt do a fill for 6 weeks.  The nurse did my first fill and after she put the needle in, she had me get up and got in front of an xray machine and we could see the needle stuck in my port.  She said she wanted to make sure she was in the right spot.  Then she squirted the stuff in and had me drink something.  We could see the fluid go down my throat through the band and in my stomach.  My port sticks out alot.  Too much, if you ask me. I cant imagine if they couldnt 'find' the port.  Wasnt there someone else that could have helped?  Was it the Dr?  Did she give a reason? Maybe you are still too swollen.  Good luck to you. 

My Dr had the same problem with my first fill. He finally found it after a long time poking around and I ended up with a 4" round bruise! I just had my 2nd fill yesterday and it went much better...still a little difficult to find the port, but he found it and added more saline. Hopefully they will find your port easier this month....
