Do not attempt: I do NOT at all advise you take out your own PICC line. You need to be in a sterile environment and have a trained nurse using sterile equipment taking this line out. This is VERY very important!! Not only worried about unsterile environment but what if you can't stop the bleeding?? You need a trained technician, 100%.
