I had mine removed one week after my last Herceptin treatment. The onc told me before that I could have it removed, I was done, and yet when I saw the nurse practitioner, she acted shocked I was going to take it out so quickly. It was a little disconcerting to see her reaction but I wanted to remove it as soon as possible. I just thought if I had to start chemo over again, then I'd have another port put in. It was great to have it when I needed it but it was time for it to go. It was January 2005 that it was removed and to this point I remain NED.
