Make sure that when you treatment the nurse does not use but paper tape to hold the needle in your port. I also developed an allergy to the regular tape, including the clear one, to the point that one time it almost bursts the wound.

I hope the pain goes away soon.

New port 5 days ago.

I called the emergecy Drs. at my hospital and told them about the reaction I was having to the glue of the transparent tape.  I took it off like they told me and my put my own gauze/paper tape.  I know I am allergic to the glue of the bandaids in my chest.  I am glad to see that someone had the same problem.  Hope your cancer has been cured.
