Mine bothered me a lot at first, I have a weak stomach for things like this. I hardly know it is there now.. Hope the same happens for you.

I hope the soreness goes away quickly for you. Glad you have that part behind you now. Pammy
Well ... you've taken one more big step ... good for you! You will be so glad you've got the port once they start blood draws and chemo. As was mentioned above ... ask for a prescription for the EMLA cream ... put in on an hour before your treatment ... and you won't feel a thing.
I love my port! I can't imagine being poked with needles all the time. I'd spend most of the time passed out on the floor.
hugs.

that step is behind you,Katt!0 -
Things will be so much easier....
I had my port for both cancers, and they even fed me thru it (after I whinned ALOT about being hungry!!!) during a bowel obstruction from my colon cancer....
The only time I felt it was when I would bump it with something...like a computer that I was replacing...
Here's to another step toward the end of treatment!!!
