My stomach had to be re-routed below my diaphragm (was entirely in my chest cavity) and hiatal hernia. SO, my port incision is about 3 inches long. I have another incision that is about an inch and the other three were about 1/2 long. I also had 4 other little pin prick size punctures.

WOW! I bet the surgeon was surprised when he got in there and did not see a stomach! I wonder what his first comments were when he saw that?

My port incision is just below my left breast on my rib. It is about 3 to 4 inches long. I had seven incisions total, 1 very small one, 5 between 1/2 to 1 inch and then the port.
My port is below my breastbone about1.5 inches with about a 3 inch scar. I was surprise at this. Also I have a couple of tiny pieces of suture or thread stickin out of my belly.
