I dont know anything about ports, but i wanted to wish you a Happy Birthday <img src="i/expressions/present.gif" border="0"> <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif" border="0">
MY nurse mentioned to me about getting a port in my arm when the need arises. How was the process if you dont mind me asking? Did you have to go to sleep for it? Or did they use local? Did you have to lay flat when the did it? how long did it take? Thanks.....

Ports can be placed in a lot of different locations. Some people prefer to have them in the arm so that they're easier to access on their own, etc.

Congrats on getting a port! You're going to really like the freedom and comfort it brings when you have to do IVs. I just got my second port awhile back (had the first one for 10 years!) If you'd like to know more about it, check out my blog.
