Hi all, sorry I've been quiet for a while, I was getting used to my new treatment.  I had a portacath fitted into my chest on Monday which will make having chemo so much easier than having a canular put in every week. Also apparently there is less risk of infections as there is with a picc line. I can also go swimming and shower with this once it heals. Its a bit sore and it is a uncomfortable procedure but I hope that it is as good as they say it is.  Grinning
