I have a programble shunt know. Lately I've been having continious pain where my shunt is, like right on it. Also I've had a non-stop pain a little above where my insition is in my stomach. Is this normal? what can help me to ease the pain? Do you guys have any suggestions?? I can really use your help! thanks! -Isa
