I second everything Bubbles said. My husband has had a port since February 2012. His port was put in for another illness entirely, but has gotten a lot more use since the stage IV melanoma diagnosis in August 2012.
his port lies just under his right clavicle. Since you are having left sided procedures I would think they could do the same for you and that it would not interfere with treatment of your left clavicle.
All all the best to you,

Just an update here. One new primary melanoma biopsies this week. This is my husband's first new primary since beginning treatment for metastatic melanoma 2 years ago. I know from the side effect profile that it could be related to brag inhibitors. Based on my husband's history of 8 or 9 primary melanomas, it could just as likely be his genes. I lost count of the primaries after we hit 5, but his original dermatologist says from her records this is number 10.
