Has anyone had a mediport implanted?

Made chemo much easier. I still have mine and it just gets flushed every 6-8 weeks. Will have it removed once it’s determined no more treatment needed. To me the only downside is that no one else will use it. They don’t use it for blood draws, couldn’t use it for the last MRI or CT. In fact no one will use it except the chemo infusion center down here.

I am sorry to hear that yours can only be used for chemo. I was told that mine can be used for blood draws, MRIs, CTs, and surgery. I wish you all the best.
