Just wondering if anyone has had a picc line fitted? I’m going in tomorrow for 1 and just wondering how long it takes and does it hurt lol xx
Hi Lindz, I don’t have one but my friend who I met on here has just recently had one fitted. If no one answers I’ll ask her tomorrow. She doesn’t really go on here much. Xx
Hey, my friend said it doesn’t hurt but you can’t get it wet. She got a cover for hers for showering. She had a pic line but has a port now. That’s a bit more complicated I think. Xx
Sorry the hospital gave her one but obviously not that size. I think she just got that picture off the internet to show you .
