Where are you hurting?  You cannot touch your actual diaphragm, it is internal.  Are you having pain in your upper abdomen?

I am not having any pain. It is just sore to touch in that area. It isin the center where your ribs meet. I call it my diaphragm. I go back for my 3 month check up on the 22nd. and will have the Dr look at it. I was just wondering if anyone else had this.

anatomically, there are a few things that you could be feeling.  1.  the xyphoid process.  this is the very end of your breastbone and feels it is arrow shaped. 
2.  the abdominal wall muscle.  3, the actual pouch  4.  the jejunum end that has been brought up and attached to your pouch (altho that would be the very last choice0
If you press the area, and there is no bony prominence that you are feeling, and it is all soft tissue, it is probably your pouch.  Doc my want to do a scope and check it out.
