Hi,

I wondered if anyone has had an issue with PICC line bleeding?

Not sure how/when it started, just noticed lit ast night before I went to bed.

Spoke to my chemo out of hours and said as it didn't appear to be actively bleeding wait until the nurse came out today to have a look.

It hasn't been bleeding over night but now (could be my mind playing tricks and me making me paranoid) but above the line seems cold.

Any advice appreciated...I would just love to ask for it to be taken out as had enough of it.

Thanks
