HI All!
I will look for the generic EMLA and see if it's cheaper than the real stuff.
I took the bandage off the new Port this morning so I could shower.....and it kinda freaked me out to see that lump there under the skin....I guess it stays that way because thats the port, right?? UGH!!!!!! I feel like the Bionic woman now! LOL

Sue I haven't mentioned to my school that I want to change jobs, yet. But now that I have the port I think I will because if I'd get bumped on this lump it would hurt like crazy!
I have no idea what they'll say....hopefully they will agree with me.

Well it's pain pill time again.....I'm going to try a Darvon this time....see if it makes me itch too
