My neuro sent in the paperwork on a Monday. By Friday the IV center was working on my insurance, and by the next Wednesday I was scheduled for an infusion!

They have 16-20 patients on it already, so I won't be a newbie!

I'll update as I get closer, or more nervous, but right now I'm feeling good!
Glad to hear things went so smoothly for you! Let us know how it goes!
