I have the same disease. I currently have an infected port- going into surgery tomorrow. I am getting a temp line in, don’t no which. Thanks for the education!
I'm on a midline right now myself. I caught MRSA and it got into my bloodstream. Had to have surgery for a giant abscess and because of the length of antibiotics, I've got a midline. I'm really relieved to see how flexible those tubes are. I've been worried about breaking them inside my vein, but if they're that flexible, it's probably not going to happen.
I have dysautonomia, which basically means that the jobs my autonomic nervous system should be able to do correctly, can't. It can create blood pressure issues, temperature regulation issues (as well as a slew of other dysfunctions) but it can cause an extremely high heart rate from blood pooling in the legs which can frequently lead to blacking out or fainting. Getting extra fluids directly to the blood stream increases the blood volume which allows less pressure on the heart to need to be tachycardic!
