I was just wondering if any of you that use home health care for your IV antibiotic treatment ever use peripheral IV's (in the hand) instead of PICC lines? I don't know if they allow you to do that or if you have to have a PICC or port for home heath care. I'm sure it also varies from place to place, but I just thought I'd check. I think my time for IV antibiotics is fast approaching and there is no way I can do a PICC. Just curious!
