When the nurses were having difficulty finding my veins, I asked for a port-a-cath. I’ve recently had it replaced with a new one after 10 years. They are great! The downside is that when you aren’t on treatment, they need to be flushed every 6-7 weeks.
Ask about getting one.

@jenelleseaman Because I read that your port-a-cath became infected. I opted not to have this done. I'm being proactive and thinking positively, "I'll not need chemo again because I'm going to be the one who beats a recurrence." Part of me is in a dissociative state of mind that this really isn't happening to me. I'm bald, walking like a duck from neuropathy, and bruised on my arms from chemo nurses who couldn't stick me correctly with a 24 aby needle. I watched my first husband die at 41 of colo rectal cancer. Then my father 2 months later of lung/throat cancer at age 61, and my mother die at age 74 of colo rectal cancer. I absorbed all their pain in my body. Tomorrow I have genetic counseling. I'm doing this for my grandchildren who don't even talk with me. Their mothers rejected my healthy lifestyle as I was a health teacher in middle and high schools. They rejected me for not indulging in alcohol, drugs, and tobacco. And they influenced their children to "hate" me for being different than their partying mothers. I sometimes believe the deep heartache I've endured from this painful estrangement was a cause of inflammation, high estrogen, testosterone, and insulin. No studies have shown this as a way to mutate cells and cause endometrial cancer. I'll most likely never discover why my body has betrayed me. This is a vicious and aggressive cancer. I need to get a grip on my mind set. Find ways to communicate with my body and figure this out. I was doing so well on an anti inflammatory life style at the end od 2024 and all through 2025. I naturally lost 37 lbs. and all y numbers dropped. My waist was once again 34 inches. I was feeling wonderful. Then I sensed something was wrong. I asked for tests and doctors were resistant to so I found a hoistic doctor. He changed everything. I went back to my specialists with the results of 33 vials of blood testing for things western doctors wouldn't think of doing. I had ACTIVE Epstein Barr Virus!! testosterone and estrogen off the charts. HPV 16 - 18. And blastocysts one-celled parasites. None of the doctors at my university based medical system will even discuss these things that they normally do NOT test. I've researched and studied and some places in Europe have done studies for these. I feel SO ALONE with my cancer care team.

@jenelleseaman I have just had one inserted. Taking it out for a ride this coming Friday. Wish me luck.
