GRRR!!

OUCH!!! 2 wonderful nurses each tried to access my port, both failed. My pammi is now stuck in my hand. :( SO angry at the IVR doc for not wanting to fix it. Another report being made by the nurse today for IVR to look at my port again. I think my nurses might revolt if IVR doc denies a replacement again (would be the 3rd time!)

In medicine, a port (or portacath) is a small medical appliance that is installed beneath the skin. A catheter connects the port to a vein.

picture is not me but this is how it should look, you can't even see mine anymore and the bump is gone and it feels like it's tipped sideways.




This is what the wonderful nurse had to do instead.
