Re: Port Placement

Hi, you will really like the PORT, I've had mine in a few weeks, has healed well and I can sleep on my tummy or side without any issue now. It is quick and easy for the nurses as well. I use the Emla patch to numb the area prior to my chemo sessions, just so I don't feel any prick, tired of the prick of the needle feeling. I run and do yoga with it no problem just a slight 1-inch scar that's it. No worries in the shower or while swimming, and I don't have to cover it up, very pleased with it! Take good care, YellowTail
