Each time I was in the hospital it would not flow right so I had the traditional IV in the arm. I called the surgeon who put it in and he would not do it at the same time as my neck dissection because the dissection was a serious operation and he didn't want to risk anything.
My reg doctor who use to work in oncology said that some people do not get them removed. I do not know if I want to be put to sleep again. I'm a big chicken so I would definately need to be put to sleep.
If asnyone has anything
