My port took a while to settle and I got all sorts of weird pains that moved around, in my neck and chest until it did, it took a bit over a week. My body did not like it being there I think.
It is still a bit tender if I bump it even over a month after insertion, but as the chemo makes my skin more tender and easier to bruise that could be the reason.
It does make chemo a lot less traumatic for me so it is worth it.
I am currently on FEC so can't help with your drugs, I'm afraid.
Good stuff though if you are handling it well!
