pain in power port

I got my port june 22. It has been fine but the last few days i have had a funny feeling by the port, like a foreign object or the port moving or something. I dont know how to explain it. went to surgeon for check up aug 5, it seemed fine to him. it was accessed yesterday for my herceptin and the nurse didnt say anything was out of the norm.

I am wondering if me carrying my purse on that side is bothering teh port. i can't use the other side cause of lymphedema.
jsut wondering if anyone else has expereienced weird sensations in their port like this. should i let it go or go see the surgeon? thanks! Bonita
