I used to be on them for a few years, had a port, but they had to remove it after awhile as my doctors were concerned about the central line getting infected

Dang! I’ve had peripherals a couple times at the hospital but it’s like $400 every time with my insurance so I can’t do them that much

I do it 3 times a week at home. I have a port and my nurse comes to access it once a week.

I do LR’s but it’s basically the same thing! I do 500ml twice a week at home.

How often do you get them. Are you doing them in-home or at a hospital?

I am. I’ve been on them for over 2 years. They are extremely helpful
