Vesting with a Picc Line

Does anyone else find it to be slightly uncomfortable. No so much during the vesting time but after there is then a dull pain sometimes in the chest area where the picc line is at.... Just curious if anyone else experiences this and if you have any tips.<br><br><br>Thanks!<br>

I did maybe once, but other than that, I've been okay. The only discomfort I have is where to put my arm so the vibration doesn't bother it.

Liz it is not terrible. I just put the machine at a lower frequency and put a towel over the right side of my chest...... You can still vest...... <br>
