I'm a lady with a prosthetic arm - never been a problem in over 6 years - until cancer struck in November 2017 in the breast on my 'good' side. This has thrown up a lot of complications - they emphasised the great risk of lymphodoema so I only had a sentinel node biopsy - 4 removed, 2 cancerous. I can't have any more nodes removed so have been moved to the oncologist but have to wait to see if a radiologist will fit a portacath so I can safely have blood taken/be given chemotherapy. The oncologist was not keen to use a Hickman line and said a PICC was out of the question. The whole process from the recall after the mammogram to the present has been a steep learning curve with regular waits of 10-14 days for results/appointments etc. All I want to do is get it over with!! Just wondered if anyone else has had a similar experience.
