I just finished 6 rounds of a 4 chemo cocktail 2 months ago. I got a port and it is awesome, it's so easy for the nurses to draw blood and for the infusion treatments. And you can move around easily during the treatments. Going to the bathroom with an IV in your hand is difficult, but not with a port. For sure bring an emotional support human to every appointment, you will need a second pair of ears.

No ice for me and I won’t dare touch anything coal without gloves💕
I had a port put in with no sedation at all. It was an easy procedure. I had to drive myself home so you cannot have sedation.
