Thrombosis??
People should probably not be allowed to google their symptoms when they are feeling nervous about them. Since Friday afternoon I have had pain in my left shoulder and my port has felt very sensitive. Yesterday I discovered that I have a low grade fever, which I still have. And today my hands and arms just don't feel quite right...they feel weak...tingly maybe...kind of hard to explain. So, I googled my symptoms and it brought up thrombosis, which is a blood clot restricting the flow of blood. Apparently they are common in people with ports... I put in a call to the doctor and hopefully they will get back to me soon...I am really trying not to overreact.
