Porta Cath
I am Wendy, 53 years of age from North East Victoria and this is my first time writing a blog. I had a Masectomy and axillary clearance in February 2011 and have been undergoing chemo every 3 weeks ...
Hi Wendy, I'm lagging a bit behind with the info. I had my porta cath put in just before christmas. I was a nervous wreck just thinking about having it, but now, I am grateful that I had it done. I had a twilight sedation which worked really well. I am having my last chemo on Thursday this week but will be on Herceptin and Bondronat ongoing so mine will be staying with me. It is certainly a much quicker option for getting set up. Hope all goes well with your treatment.
Take care.
Tracey
