Now come along with me, Taffy into reality. It sucks, but maybe together we can face it.

I'm having issues trying to explain this carp to my Grandma because I have now had 3 specialists recommend that I do a 3 day IVSM and I just don't want to deal with the reality of explaining this to my Grandma and freaking her out!

However, I would like to have enough energy to deal with the holidays and enough brain power to pay my bills and be able to read OK again, too. So, I guess I'll quit trying to float down that stupid river, too.
Holly....I will send CG over to explain things to you...

(yes, that was a threat!)

Explaining this to your Grandma....tell her it's energy via an IV to help you get better. Do you do your IVSM at home or at an infusion center? If you go to an infusion center, then you can hide the heplock so she won't see it. Just have them put it high enough on your arm. I usually have mine middle of lower arm so I can cover it up.

I hope it works.

As for Taffers....she lives close enough to me that I can fly over there in an hour and drag her butt to the doc....but I know she will do the right thing...she doesn't feel well.
