removing port
I had my port removed in the Doctor's office...it was not a big deal. It was also in my upper arm...actually I've had two, the other was in my chest. Neither was a problem to remove. They numbed the area, waited a few minutes and took it out. The nurse actually did the procedure.
About veins...I've had them use my wrist, my hand, and my foot...none of which are great options...I have no idea where they go after the foot...
