Just starting Chemo at the end of the month.
I am seeing my Oncologist for the first appointment on 20th Feb, and hope to start Chemo that week. I have a million questions to ask him, but hope to get a few things clear before I go in as I am ...
The staff are fantastic at finding veins but I had a portacath. See pic...slight bump in the skin (top arrow) and 8 months on the scar is quite faint (bottom arrow). I hated the scar when 1st done but it healed really quickly. I am 10kg overweight. If you are thinner it can be a bit more noticable depending on position. Makes life much easier on chemo and I am on herceptin for another 5 months.
