Have to get chemo through arm, port has to come out

I don't know what is going on with this port.  Did my  4 a/c chemo, every 3 weeks, have done 3 wkly taxotere so far

The port has been flipping on me, the surgeon even came to oncology and felt it. The nurse could flip it, but she said she can't use it.   So i got local anesthesia, while they sewed it in, through 3 layers.

And from what i hear,  i'm not the first one. Port is below collar bone..below is the first port episode

only had one hydration IV, 2 min into it, it was the sodium chloride, not even the meds yet...I passed out, throat closes up, get light headed, and i passed out. DH saw the whole thing, poor guy. Entire staff surrounding me.  I get awake, and 2 paramedics ready to take me to closest hospital.  I had hives, redness majorly, but my voice was coming back

at the hospital, they cat scanned my brain, everything ok. Heart monitor on all night, cardio doc comes in the morning, and says stop using BP med Benicar, made my BP drop too fast, and they released me

Taked to everyone at oncology, they said they will try diff lines for chemo, maybe i was allergic to numbing spray, when they used port, this was 2 min into IV, like i said sodium chloride. Oh yea i always get the steroid IV, and benadryl, before the nausea and chemo meds, the pre-drips first

Had another reaction with port, that makes 3, got hives, same thing throat closing up.

had that port sewn down, last month?

and again last wednesday, nurse accidentally used numbign spray, if i am allergic to it....this can't be it!..said oh sh#t, wiped it off, got the IV going, walked to her nurses area, maybe 2 min again, i called her, and here we go again, but i didn't pass out, and there were 2 Physicians assistants, that were right there

so one of the PA's softly checking my neck, asking what is that lump?..I can feel the wire from the port, 1/2 up my neck, lump around that.....and they talk stuff i cannot hear

Oncology doc says no more port, do it periphaelly, through arm, i have 9 more taxotere to go, never had prob with IV chemo, through arm

port has to come out they tell me, so surgeon is on vacation First consult with him would be 8/14, port removal week after week of 8/18

so today oncology office says to call this other surgeon from their clinic ( same as PCP, gynie, oncologist)..who can see my friday

i don't know what the hell is going on, thought they would blow my veins out, if done through the arm, the IV..it's that power port, even got an ID for keychain for it

can anyone make any sense outta this

BTW the wkly taxotere is bothering me more than the  a/c did, maybe cause it is wkly. The loss of appetite, the diarhhea comes on the wknd, chemo always on wednesday, the wknd is when it hits me.  I struggle trying to eat breakfast, have to take a lot of pills.....1/2 banana and just a bite of something, 1/2 donut...I was able to eat the legs from a Sams  club roasted chicken, about 3pm finally

thanks for reading this

oh, and my BP dropped again, nurses asked me if i ever had seizures!....no way, thats after i started the throat closing up, got really red my neck....they hurried up, this was last wednesday, and got some benadryl, and steroids into that line, and about 10 min later i was feeling better
