Hi everyone l have such bad veins . I am going to get a porta Cath next week. Chemo starts on the 19 th of Feb . I’m getting anxious . There is so much info for me to remember. Dreading side effects...
I am sure there's been women on here that have had more than one put in. As for having them out, I know that some have had to wait and others have them out immediately. I guess it may depend on your treatment and whether the doctor thinks it may be useful in the next 12 months to save your veins. Personally, while I've appreciated it during chemo, I'll be glad to see the back of mine as soon as I've finished.
