Yes,Picc line is what I have 
. I didn't even know what it was until my little sister who is a nurse said it...maybe I got Pickle because we were eating. The Onc had told me that I could have it out but I had to contact the Onc surgeon so that is why I decided to do it with the plastic surgeon. She never said anything about doing it in the office I just assumed I would have to have surgery again to remove it.
Sure glad your nipples look good.
You mentioned earlier that you don't have feelings in your chest, well I do. Last time I went to the plastic surgeon I took an ice pack because the time before that it hurt when he did the fills. I don't have too much feelings around where the scar across my chest is but everywhere else I do. I also took an ice pack with me when I had chemo to put where the port was. The spray the nurse used to numb almost made me sick so I asked if I could do the ice pack and the last one I had she said another lady had brought in an ice pack also. The nurse thought that was great to do that instead of the spray.
Do you know how long it takes to do the tattooing?
