Guest guest Posted January 3, 2010 Report Share Posted January 3, 2010 Happy New Year to all! Has anyone had a PICC line? If so, would you mind telling me about your experience with the insertion and the follow-up care of the site. TIA From Dowling, editor and priest, Chicago Daily News, July 28, 1941: The two greatest obstacles to democracy in the United States are, first, the widespread delusion among the poor that we have a democracy, and second, the chronic terror among the rich, lest we get it.

Guest guest Posted January 28, 2011 Report Share Posted January 28, 2011 Beth, the email address you gave didn't work, so I'm sending my email here. Good luck! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Farhangi <lesliefarhangi@...> Date: Fri, Jan 28, 2011 at 3:11 PM Subject: picc line beth@... Beth, My son did not have a clot, but the first week after the picc line was in was the MOST stressful -- any complication that will happen I think happens then, so you are in the middle of it. You are in the best place (the ER) for your daughter, she will get the care she needs. I'm just writing to tell you the stress and uncertainty gets better. You *will* get through this, and she *will* get better -- the doctors will figure out a way to treat the lyme, no matter what the initial complication may be. Good luck, I'm thinking of you.
