Port Pain

DanielleH

It has been 2 weeks and 2 days since my port placement in my chest. Has anyone else suffered from neck pain after getting their port? I am ready to lose my mind with my neck. Has the same feeling as a pinched nerve.

Danielle, call the surgeon and have it checked. Other than annoying, I haven't had any problems with mine.

I agree. I can't even feel mine. Call and get seen

Like yourself I had neck pain. It did lessen after a time , I thought the pain was more from the tube in the vein . I was ready to yank it out a few times but overall I do not regret having it done. Lind

Call and be seen - better to be safe than sorry.

I sern my Dr yesterday and he thinks it is actually a pulled muscle that is pushing on the nerve in the back of my neck. I probably wasnt resting enough after my surgery.

On a happier note I got my results from my surgery. My margins were clear after tge lumpectomy, no cancer in the nodes, tumor was 2.4cms which make me stage 2A and ER+ only. I will start chemo in January.
