Re: Port or No Port?
A typical blood draw for me can take 3-4 tries. I have tiny veins, they tend to roll and I have valves is weird places....or so I have been told! I had my first chemo done without a port and I ended up with a large bruise that lasted for months. Luckily I never had any issues with my port. As handy as the port made infusions I was very happy to be rid of it as soon as I could! As with this journey as a whole, we all have to made decisions that work for us - our cancer, our body, our decision.
