Port a cath
Hi all, I never thought in a million years I would need to be posting here. I was Diagnosed with Invasive Ductal Carcinoma, with a few affected lymph Nodes in January. Ive had 4 dose dense treatments ...
My port was sensitive for a little while but was without major issues. I would recommend it to anyone especially if their veins are deemed not strong enough to cope with chemo. I just wish the location of mine done a bit more to the side as I found that my seatbelt would push on it which was slightly annoying when driving. So would have loved to have suggested to the dr putting it in to be mindful of that as well as if it was off to the right more the scar would have been hidden behind most of my clothes whereas now it is quite visible as it sits more towards my cleavage.
