Oral vs. IV Chemotherapy
What are the pros and cons of oral versus intravenous chemotherapy?
I had chemo 44 years ago. After the port was removed the area was infected and took a long time to heal. There is hardly a scar visible today.
have you been in remission all these years? I'm so glad your port site healed and you're here to tell about it. Thanks for sharing!

I went the port route once I understood the need for the many draws for testing + the actual infusions. Veins, I learned, can only take so much, and rather than risk an issue, I signed up for the port. While it was suggested the process was a quick in-and-out procedure, it involved much more than I would have expected. It was removed 18 months later, and the surgical scar has all but disappeared.
