Getting Started

I was diagonised with a very large cysyt in oct. Local doctors removed it and tests results, cancer, second surgery explortory, no tumers found. But the tumer is stage 1 grade c. It was attatched to my bladder and had a small rupture in it.  My first infusion went well, not to sick until day 6 then vomiting.  Port was put in yesterday, i am surprised how much pain i am experiencing with the port.  Has anyone else had a lot of pain after getting the port and after it heals is it not so painful?  I'm pretty though, have been through some big surgeries. I too have lost a lot of weight, but feeling better, hopefully the next two weeks before infusion again i will put some back on. Best wishes to all, life changing times. Lou
