Re: New here and need support plz

No advice, just sympathy. You've had it rough!

Welcome to the club no one wants to join. Lots of wise, loving, caring people here.

FWIW I was metastatic at diagnosis and I'm in my 6th year of continuous treatment--an infusion just about every 3 weeks. I never got around to getting a port. At first I didn't know if I'd live long enough to make it worthwhile. Then one thing or another got in the way. I have pretty decent veins, still, but I will probably get one eventually.

I'm sorry you've had all those strange and scary medical conditions. You must be very resilient to live through all that and then report it so matter-of-factly. You'll be a wonderful help to others who are going through hell.
