Just finished Infusion #1 yesterday!!!

I'm so relieved---and it went so well! No reactions, no problems, and they even found a vein in my hand right away, which is remarkable, since my veins are notoriously small and "roly."

Both yesterday and today I've had no fatigue, no side effects--nuthin'! So far so good.

My wonderful PCP and his staff say that I'll probably have to have a port put in my shoulder, because of my non-cooperative veins--but they want to wait a couple of months to see how I continue to react to the infusions. If the TY is helping, then we'll go for it.

Just wanted to let everyone here know that you've been a terrific source of information! During the last several months, while I had to make decisions concerning treatment, all of you who participate on this board gave me so much information, support, and encouragement--without my even having to write in and ask for it!

Whenever I've had concerns or questions about TY, I've come here and found a wealth of answers. I really appreciate it--you've all made this so much easier.

I'll keep posting in as I continue on my new TY journey. Thanks again, everyone!
