Hi,
for some reason the cardio vascular surgeon changed his mind and put my port in the BC side. It is on my right so one tube goes up my neck and the other right across my chest and is tucked in the top of my heart he says. Well my little scarab beetle (my port feels like one of the beetles on the Mummy film !) is now settled to less than 3 inches from the original tumour site. I have checked and they think it will very likely be in the way for rads. Onc says it is coming out after chemo. Just wondered if anyone has had one out. I am biting my fingers about having to be awake as I am sure I will feel it. When it was first put in, I could feel it close to my oesophagus when I swallowed. Any cheery or practical comments would be appreciated, save me from any scary bits, I can do that all on my own.
