ports

Hi Fly,
here in the UK they like to flush them once a week, which ties in nicely with my once a week blood test (six weeks after Rabbit no signs of anything significant :0( )
When I asked how often they should be flushed they said at least once a week, however, if I wanted to, they would show me how to do it myself. It is quite easy, its more about technique, you do quick little flushes to cause turbulence in them and finish with a solution that coats the ports to stop blood from sticking. I said that once I am down to once in a blue moon visits I will consider doing them myself.
Congrats on your results, I wish mine would hurry up, now getting really stressed with it all.
xxx
Karen
