Port-a-cath and July 18, 2012

Well the procedure went very well!!! After I went under they tried to stick me a few times before they got it but otherwise it went great! They two days recovering was tough. I took a lot of pain meds because it was hurting a ton and they made it a lot easier.

Today I went to infusion to try to use the Port and for an hour they could not get it to work! It was so terrifying. Eventually, we got a new nurse to try and stick me. Thankfully on the first stick she got it! The swelling was bad and we couldn't get it through with a short needle. Now we know that we have to use a longer needle during regular infusions. I am so glad that it is working!
