Thanks for all your thoughts. I got the port installed. Finished my second cycle of chemotherapy late Sunday night and came home. Unfortunately, I noticed my breathing was difficult, particularly, when I tried to sleep. Came back to the emergency room yesterday and was readmitted to treat a blood clot in my lungs. I am back in the hospital and it is likely I will get to go home tomorrow. Hopefully, I wont need to stay longer or be readmitted until my next chemotherapy cycle after Christmas.
