I had my first chemo yesterday, and was dreading the cannula thingy but the nurse was great, and even though i was having 3 drugs it was only the one needle stick. I just looked away and she also gave me a hot pack. I also asked my oncologist for a stress relieving drug first, so got that.
My nurse checked my veins and thought they were fine and said she did not think i would need one of those port lines, she said they were often given to people who were on a more extended course than I am-i am on 6
Good luck with yours!
