Port replacement done!! Dare I say it was FUN!?
My Dr did the port replacement in his office. He does not normally do it that way but made an exception in my case.
I am sorry about your frustration. I hope you can find a way to have it repaired economically and safely. $8,500 for a port replacement seems steep. Even if I had done it in a surgery center under anesthesia it would have been around $2500.

Thank you! I forgot that you had responded to me about your surgery on my post a couple weeks ago. :) I hope your new port works great!

Experienced a leak in my port, and had no restriction for over 9 months. Had leak repair surgery on 1/31/11 and am back on my journey again! :)
