And I don't mean the yummy kind that comes after dinner with witty (or tipsy) conversation and nice cheese with crackers.
I had infusion # ???? (in my fifth year now) and my veins are going on strike. My beautiful nurses - one of whom has MS, and the other who is a super-gentle and experienced oncology/chemotherapy nurse have suggested I get a port put in after three unsuccessful attempts today to cannulate me (finally got it in on my cubital fossa - which I don't like) Not sure how I feel about this - in Australia, they don't test the titre level for JC+ - you are just positive or negative (I am +). If I knew my titre level, I would have a better idea of how long I am prepared to risk Ty. Does anyone else have a port? If so, what was it for, what was your experience, and did it make using Ty better? Thanks
