Smile Thanks for replying

Many thanks to all of you! I feel less anxious now knowing that others have had a similar experience with their port. I also feel like the port has been more painful than the lupectomy. I didn't know how to explain the breathing sensation I was feeling but when several of you mentioned "pulling" I immeadiately identified. The "pulling" has lessened and although the port side and my neck are still sore I now Know that too will subside.

Thanks again!!

I start chemo next week, I'm sure I'll have more questions after my first treatment. Having found a place to come 24/7 for support will get me through this.

Blessings to you all!
Maria
