To keep my port, or not keep my port.... that is the question

Hi all. Twelve months ago I was diagnosed with grade 3, HER2+  BC with a high proliferation rate of 71%.  Now I only have 3 lots of Herceptin to go and then I will finally end 12 months of treatment. ...

Hi Nadi,

I finished Chemo 6 months ago & have kept my port in place, mostly because my veins dont like being stabbed for blood tests. It makes life a hell of a lot easier for me to keep it... But, having said that, touch wood, I have had no problems with mine...
