Re: Any other Power Port patients here?
Hi. I had a power port and got an infection from a infusion center. It was called the Iraqibacter. If you look it up it will give you the medical name. Not something you want to get in your port. I was very very sick for about 10 days. Now I am infection free and got a new port put in yesterday. It is way to high - up by my collar bone. I'm not happy about that since my last one was really low and didn't show. This one is sore too so I'm not to sure about the placement. But ports are cool - I'm glad to have one.
