Hi Helen, I finished chemo in June 2011 and still have my portocath in place. I do whatever I like including heavy exercise. I do weights as well. I am about to start boxing again. I do heavy gardening as well. Every 5-6 weeks I go to the oncology ward and have it flushed out. No problems. No-one has ever mentioned limitations to me. My limitation is caused by lympodema in my arm (opposite side). The only time I am a bit careful is around my two little grandchildren who love to tackle Nanna and also use me as a "beanbag". Go for it girl - the world is your oyster. XLeonie
