The port was the best decision that could have been made. Through all my treatments 4 rounds AC, 12 weeks Taxol/Herceptin and then Herceptin once every three weeks for 9 months. I am so glad the nurses don't have to find a vein.
I certainly didn't want the port at first, but I am glad I did. Once you put the LMX cream on it, you don't feel anything as they are inserting the needle.
I know all this is scary, but just take it a day at a time. I was diagnosed Oct 04 with Stage 3, Her2 3+, positive nodes. I am so thankful that there is herceptin. What scares me is, after I stop receiving herceptin, what next?
Good Luck
Pam
