Where is your port?



Recommended Posts

Has anyone heard of people getting their port in their shoulder?

Also! Does anyone know of a doctor in alberta who does fill under fluoroscopy other than in Grand Prairie?

I thought my location was abnormal. It is near the center of my chest. I have never heard of anyone yet having their port near the shoulder area.

Ya, one of my friends was saying they are starting to put it in between the collar bone. Just wondering how that would be!

Both places sound awkward. The band is placed around the stomach to make a small pouch. I wouldn't want my port sticking out when I wore a blouse or bathing suit.

can you request where it goes?

i wouldn't want it on my chest or shoulder

the belly is the logical place.
