 Anyone else had issues with cannulas?
I had a mastectomy and reconstruction 4 weeks ago. I’ve been in hospital for the last 10 days, on IV antibiotics. They are having trouble getting cannulas fitted. 
mum due to start chemo asap and I'm scared stiff about my veins. 

I’m due to stop my antibiotics tomorrow and a cannula fitted yesterday has failed so I told them not to fit another. 

Has anyone experienced this?
