Hi Lexi!
I was terrified to get a port too, however, it was actually a pretty easy procedure - you feel sore for a few days after, but you can tolerate it.
I always have numbing cream (I think it is called embola (probably not the correct spelling) put on the port area, about 1/2 hour before it is used and the only thing I feel is pressure when they insert a needle.
Hope this helps...
Mary
