In order to have chemo, I must have a central line. Last time I had a Hickman Line.
I couldn't go swimming or get wet because the line was likely to get infected.
This time I have got a Portacth which does the same job but is all enclosed so cannot get infected!
I had my operation on Thursday to have it put in but I was back on the ward in 1hr30mins.
