I have had my port in since May, had it accessed about 6 days later and it was fine, but that surgery for me was worse then the two to remove the cancer... they kept me awake and I am a HUGE chicken. The port was tender and I thought something was wrong for about a month, now I really dont feel it but I can see it. The nurses said they put it pretty deep in my chest but I can obviously see the scar above it and a little bump, it is not noticable with tight shirts but if you look at it head on yeah it is there. Good luck with it, I love it and have talked many people int he chemo room into getting it seeing them week after week struggling to find a vein, especially breast cancer patients who can only dig in one arm. Hang in there, keep an eye on it and enjoy the simple poke!
