Had my last herceptin on Dec 5, but onc wants me to keep port for 6 months or so. My surgeon agrees with the practice. I get Lupron shots monthly, so will be getting flushes during these visits as needed. My port is not obvious at all and does not cause me any problems. Rather glad to hang on to it for a while, although I do feel like my odds are good and I don't plan on having to use my port for treatment any more!
