On Tuesday, my port catheter went a funny colour like it was bruised (see the photo below). The chemo team’s never seen anything like it before. It disappeared after two days and I’ve had a linogram and ultrasounds to test the integrity of the line, but I was wondering if anyone’s ever had anything similar.
How long have you had your line? I noticed a much more faint bruise-like colour on my catheter a few weeks after it was installed, it wasn’t as dramatic so I didn’t get it looked at but it’s mostly faded now. Don’t have any answers, but I have a different issue where the incision didn’t heal properly so I’m also in the ‘We’ve never seen this before!’ club ![]()
I’ve had it now for almost four months so it’s not new. Only two chemos to go, so don’t need it for much longer thankfully.

Not sure what it is - but hopefully it behaves itself for the last two
It’s annoying having to worry about something that’s supposed to be helping you ![]()
