Brief Answer:
About your question:

Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome,

If your question is whether Reglan and Xanax are compatible, it is ok to take them both, although together they may make you a little more drowsy. If you were given Reglan yesterday, it should be out of your system now anyway.

If your question is whether you can take Xanax for anxiety in general, yes, that is ok as long as the prescription hasn't expired and you have taken this current dose before and tolerated it. Otherwise, call the doctor on call for your doctor if you need a prescription that works for your port.

If you are having anxiety because you are worried about your port, go in to have your port checked. You can call the urgent care clinic and ask if they can do this.

I hope this information helps. Please let me know if I can provide further information or clarification.Brief Answer:
Yes, go in to have this checked.

Detailed Answer:
It's hard to know without seeing it, but if it is protruding more and the area feels tender, it may be out of place. Yes, it would be best for it to be seen to see what is going on. Call ahead to make sure there is a nurse at the local urgent care who is familiar with port care and what ports should look like. If there is no one there who has experience, go to the ER as someone in the hospital that has the ER should be able to help.
