Yes, Port-A-Cath to be installed one week before my chemo starts.

Thanks @joiedevivre for sharing the experience and the side effects especially the one on cold food, cold surfaces and cold water which my oncologist didn't mention.

@ayeo Includes going out in cold weather too! It is apparently only for the first 5 - 6 days after chemo that you avoid cold stuff but I was extremely paranoid and kept my husband away from cold stuff all the time he was on Folfirinox.
