Re: Its spread to my port!
I had cellulitis that started at my drain site. I felt great at 7am, by 9am I didn't feel good and my entire breast was a light pink. By 11am I had a 102 fever and the breast was bright red.
By 2pm I was admitted to the hospital and given and infusion of 3 different IV antibiotics twice daily for 5 days. I'm Lucky to still be here.
What does your medical team say? I don't want it to be skin mets either - I hope you get better news soon.
