I needed this laugh, Joe! My port experience was similar except I’m a healthcare provider and I hate anesthesia. This winning combination let me stubbornly feel the whole thing and be lucid enough to hear and understand every damn detail of the procedure (the PA “ran into trouble”) 🙄. So fun. It is better than an IV, don’t forget your lido like I do every time!
I can’t imagine without the anesthesia, it just calmed my anxiety so much. Oh and I have my lido in my cancer backpack because I know I’d forget it too lol
