[QUOTE="branguscowgirl, post: 1284340, member: 19938"] Bless you. Praying that the leakage will resolve soon. If they offer to put in a Porta Cath. (Implanted port), that sounds like the way to go for your long term antibiotics. I am an IV Therapist and I can't imagine using a peripheral vein for what you may be getting. (Assuming that you may be getting antibiotics and maybe even Chemo??) The frustrations that the nurses, doctors and hospitals all face are with the "Insurance" Companies and the State and Federal regulations all telling us what we can and cannot do. All trying to save money and cover THEIR butts. Sometimes our hands are tied, even when we know what is in the best interest of the patient. :( You are all in our thoughts and Prayers. [/QUOTE]
