Because of the clusters, I need to have Histamine alot. Because of that, I've needed many IV's, which ultimately led to me having a P.O.R.T. put in.
Now, the port is bad. This morning 'interventional radiology' looked at me and with some BIG machines, they told me that the line had 'moved up into my neck'. They gave me some drugs and stuck a needle in me near my groin area. They went all the way up through my heart valves and 'lassoed' (sp) the line to pull it back down into place. After it was over I found out that they're not satisfied with its placement. I got to go back down there in the morning for them to remove this port and replace it with a new one. 
In the meantime, I'm in the hospital here doing Histamine and steroids. I'll be here for awhile. And since I am here, I'm back on dial-up  so I won't be able to read the boards as much ... but I'll try to check in when I can.
LIFE IS NOT FAIR !!
WISH ME LUCK PLZ !!

If anyone deserves to catch a break it would be you.
Here's hoping that this time it's your turn.
Hang in there.

Sorry to hear that Mike,
No one deserves to have the CH rat gnawing on them all the time!  I hope you get a break from it! It's terrible when you’ve got soo much on your plate already.
PF wishes always,
Roland.

Bleugh.
Hope all this puts you to rights soon, Michael. You've gotten way more than your fair share of grief from CH.
Gotta tell you though--as much as you've dealt with, you always have a word of support or a helpful suggestion for others. It hasn't gone unnoticed.
You do a lot of good here. Hurry back.
Best wishes,
George

Ah! The foreigners put on such airs
Wearing the tangerine suits
And their harlequin eyes.
The pain they inspire
Draws in harmonica melodies
And the feathers of birds
Which flame up at their touch.
It all comes to light in the sheer
Debonair.

Not so bad when you think about it. The port could have gone in the other direction..
Then you'de get billed for the histamine AND a penis enlargement.

Keep it up Chewy! I can hear him laughing all the way down here and laughter is the best medicine, right?
Hope this is quick and painless and you have a full and speedy recovery Mike. Sending all my best.

Hope it's successful and quick, Mike.
Afterward, get a red sucker, blue balloon, and a pretty nurse smile.

Forget the balloon, and suck on the nurse! 
PS; and do it at dialup speed!

Aw Michael... While you sit on that bed and contemplate tommorrow please know that even though only some of us have met you in person ...we are ALL, each and every one of us WITH you tomorrow.
You and Cluster Chuck have endured more than anyone's fair share of sorrow & pain with this condition of ours.
Now with your dial-up, I do hope this gets to you by tomorrow morning as I am writing this at 5 pm pacific time.
I can hope.
Linda
p.s
pass the time dreaming up and fantasizing what you'd like to do to that Son-in-law of yours. Not that you'll do it, but dream up all kinds of scenarios...THAT should pass the time. lol
