I have all my blood work done through my port. I go to oncology and they do it all right there and even take it to the lab for me. When I have scans done I again go to oncology they put the needle in the port and off I go to nuclear medicine for my scans. Some times I have a finger pick and then I go to the lab. I figure if I save my veins in my good arm and for some reason there is not a certified chemo nurse available then they can do my vein. I also wear an ID bracelet on my lymhedema arm so everyone knows I have a dead arm. hugs, Sandy
