Re: Who else has a Power Port?
Chelee,
I had my port placed as yours is now. It was not a power port (at least I do not think it was). You do have some initial soreness, and mine itched just above the port the whole time it was in, not every day, but frequently. After a week or so, you honestly will hardly even notice it is there unless you bump it.
Had that scan today, Chelee.
