Hey, Perkins, Ginger, will I ever carry a bag on my portacath shoulder again?
Mine was on my left side and I carry a purse on the right, so I can't help you there. I don't know that they even considered it, since they were going to chop out the lymph nodes on the right. Mine got less sensitive fairly soon. It didn't really hurt after the incision healed; it was just annoying when it rubbed against something.
Some good deals show up on Coach on eBay. I have a Coach bag I never could have afforded when it was new.
Some of my to-do lists are in some kind of electronic form, which means it's obvious how long some things have been on the list. This things don't really age like fine wine.
I only have one bag, and it has cartoon pirates on it.
I promise I am actually an adult.
I have a Coach coin purse that my stepmom gave me for Christmas last year. I only use it for my quarters when I do my laundry.
I can't imagine spending over $100 for a bag. I fail at (some forms of) consumerism. OTOH, I bought two pairs of shoes and a Calvin Klein dress on Saturday, thus bringing to three my collection of sleeveless Calvin Klein dresses. Grey sheath, pale blue A-line, black with a full skirt.
Hey, Perkins, Ginger, will I ever carry a bag on my portacath shoulder again? And do they always put them on the right? The surgeon never considered my left side, and I'd much have preferred it there, usage wise.
Mine is also on my left, for the same reason as Ginger's. I carry stuff on my left shoulder all the time, but mine stopped hurting pretty much right away.
Which reminds me, I forgot to ask the oncologist about port removal. I guess I will have to email her, because I just had my last pre-treatment appointment, and I am not scheduled to see her for three more months.
:)
Perkins, I have to object to your use of that emoticon.
Because it is SIMPLY NOT BIG ENOUGH to convey the awesomeness of your statement!
