PICC Line Tip

When showering with a PICC line, get a shower cover that is reusable. This one works great, and I have never had it leak. #picc #PiccLine

Itchy PICC Line Dressing

How do yall deal with an itchy PICC line dressing? I'm using the most hypoallergenic sensitive skin option my Homehealth Pharmacy has, I'm on high doses of antihistamines, and I use cold packs to take the sting out of the itch. But it's still awful. I've had it since Dec 2018. Thanks yall!! #picc #PiccLine

How long have you had your Picc Line in for? ##lyme #picc #weight

Today I saw my doctor and I was hoping to get my Picc line out but I will have it for another 2 months. Has anyone had their Picc in for 8 months? I have had some bad side effects from the antibiotics and now he’s adding a neurological med for my brain fog and I have gained a total of 18lbs since being diagnosed. I know I have lymphatic problems but has anyone else have an issue with weight gain and lymphedema?

I know it will get better in time and that I have to stay strong. We are all strong, stronger than we know
