Hiya Gayle...glad ur finding the port useful..I have one and use a numbing cream on the port site, then I dont feel a thing. Ask at ur chemo unit for some..i know u can get 'pre-creamed 'adhesive patches, but it also comes in a smal tube that u can squirt some on and place a tegaderm patch over to let it soak in. I do mine about an hour b4 i arrive at the unit...i even use it when i go for a ct scan coz those canulas are huge and r very ouchy!!!
good luck with round 3...hope its not too severe
