Hello @contentment I am sorry you are going through this, the port is supposed to make things easier, not more complicated. You went through the trouble to have it placed, someone should be finding a solution.
I am a little confused why they couldn’t access your port, is it directly under the incision? I have so many questions to understand this. My port has never rested directly under the incision, always a few inches lower.
Are you meaning a hole in the incision that was glued shut after placing the port? Why would that prevent access, and did someone glue it shut?
Is there a plan moving forward?

The device is under the previously healed incision like yours. It was glued shut 5/8/26 when installed. And the glue eventually fell off. On 10th chemo day, nurse saw small hole developed in the healed incision area and doc said don't use port till the dept that installed it checks it. Had chemo in arm! Plan is to look at port for 2nd time monday and maybe do a dye test to see if its all ok under the skin. I'm upset and trying to stay calm.
