Just been give a I port advance to try out. was fine first 3 days when nurse put first one on. But since doing my own not sure they are working properly.the last one I took off i could stop it bleed it left a nasty bruise. I am not convinced they do work properly blood all over the place. Has any body try then with good success or am I doing somthing wrong.
So feed up with stick 5/6 needles a day in me, so this was a option.
