Hi Deb,
I have a portacath and its great. I had 6 lots of chemo and herceptin for one year so I went for the Port. The oncology nurses think its marvelous too as they dont have to go hunting for good veins and they can also take bloods from it as well.

Good luck with what ever you choose
Take Care Chrissy D :) xoxox
