I too can’t read your first comment but I can see that you are talking about a port
Definitely look into the port if you can. I’ve had 16 rounds of chemo and still have a few more infusions of herceptin and perjeta to go
I Didn’t have the port for the first couple of chemo and while they had no trouble finding my veins the chemo has now damaged my veins and just normal blood tests are now impossible to the point that I now have all my blood draws through the port as well
The actual surgery was fairly straightforward just day surgery and recovery fairly easy
mine is up near my collarbone and hidden by my bra strap so no one would know.
