hi, i have had port in since june with no problems now all of a sudden in the past few days the area is very red and irritated and sort of sore but not painful. i was thinking of just having it removed when im under for liver resection and then taking xeloda i hear it is the same as 5 fu any suggestions? or will i jinx myself by taking port out? i have had 7 chemos through it so far.
