I had a port implanted half way through my
chemo treatment in 1996. I noticed my left
arm (same side as port0 was alittle
swollen, just a bit larger than the right,
my surgeon put me on cumadin (it was
either that or remove the port). I stayed
on cumadin until my port removal in
December 1997- my left arm remains bigger
than the right..why is this? It's not a
huge difference, I can tell, my family
can, but friends and co-workers would
never notice unless I pointed it out..but
is this dangerous? Will it ever go away?
Thanks,
Kathy
