Well I enjoyed the moments pain free while they lasted. The pain in my shoulder is back in full force. I've been doing a lot of reading on this blog and the I-net and I don't know what to make of it - could be gas, could be the way my body says its full or it could be my port is laying on a nerve. Called my doctor and spoke to the PA she says is gas, but for this long?

 

Even worse is my daughter might be have complications she has a tiny bit of pus where a port is. It's under the "glue" so its really hard to tell if its old or new. She has no fever, no swelling, or pain, but I am still a bit concerned. Our doctor is only in one day a week and his hours conflict with my daughter's college school hours. She cannot afford one more absence. At this point I am ready to bring her to the e.r. just to get her checked. Any advice???

Seems like someone should have a look at it in case she needs a course of antibiotics (sooner the better) maybe she could go to the student health center?Or an urgent care place..your doc really just leaves you with no care for the whole other six days of the week? No partners or nurses or PA's ???Well good luck...
