Arm soreness
Thanks to everyone who replied to my previous post about my arm soreness following a chemo session. I had an ultrasound today (lovely way to spend my birthday!) and it appears there are no blood clot...
Happy birthday to you Sherril ?? sorry you had to spend the day getting ultrasounds. Anyway, I've got a picc line and its the best thing ever. After my veins collapsed during a hospital stay they put the picc line in and the fact no more needles are used its great! I have a community nurse come to the house and she changes the dressings once a week. I have my bloods done, had chemo done and now going in for double mastectomy on Friday 1/4 and knowing they won't have to look for veins makes me a little more comfortable. I have had it now since December 2015. Only thing is you can't get it wet during showers etc..
