Should you get your chemo port flushed periodically?

For me, it is once every 3 months and I haven’t used it in 5 months. I’d like to get it removed but they said it has to stay in for at least one year before they will remove it.

Yes! I am on a schedule of every 6-8 weeks. Just had it flushed yesterday at Mayo Jax! I’m fortunate to live ten minutes away so I don’t mind. I love my port! Makes testing SO much easier.
