Re: Portacath problem

Personally, my first became infected 6 weeks post placement. My second port was removed shortly aftr final chemo due to possible cracked catheter as it was making a whistling noise when accessed.

I pray your mums second port works flawlessly. All things are possible if you believe.

Hugs,
