I had a port put in on Friday, and I am exhausted, and nauseated. Is this normal?

    Have you contacted your
    Have you contacted your oncologist or the surgeon that put in your port? I don't know whether or not your symptoms are normal. When I had my port put in I didn't have such side affects. Please contact them ASAP in case what you're experiencing is an indication of something more serious, and let us know how you're doing.

    Take care!

    Get it checked!
    Northa914 told you correctly! Get it checked A.S.A.P. I hope you have already had it checked out. As I am posting almost a week after both your and Northa914's post.
