Has anyone started on or ever used the IV antibiotic infusions?

@vstankie - What I do for showering with a PICC. Wrap the arm with saran wrap. Then take a fairly wide, light weight, i.e. masking tape around the top edge and bottom edge. I've had 2 PICC lines and two midlines for infusion and the area has never gotten wet.

@fdixon63 @vstankie When I had my PICC line I bought the shower protector from Mightywell.com and it worked great. (link below ). They also have various colored wraps which I used to cover the PICC line.

@fdixon63 do you have someone helping you to wrap it with saran? And tape? I tried that. I have a hard enough time with saran wrap using two hands let alone one.
