I have just returned home from seeing the oncologist & it has been decided that due to my veins I will have a port put in.
The treatment recommended is Doxorubicin & Cyclophosphamide every 21 days...
Hi Eileen,
i had exactly the same chemo plan but did not have the port put in. Towards the end of my treatment, it became very hard to find good veins, which meant sometimes it would take 2 or 3 goes depending on the nurse. along with the blood taking before each one, in hindsight it probably would have been better to have a port. Good Luck with your treatment,
Wendy xx
