Hi Lizzie!
Hi sweetheart!Sorry to hear about your lab work - that stinks!
The plasma exchange isn't fun, but it does do the trick! They go in though your jugular but you are given some numbing meds first............Just take a DEEP breath and let them "do their thing"......
The real inconvenience is that you will prolly be kept in the hosp, as the docs don't want any problems with the line!
I don't know how many days they will want you to have it, but mine have been 5 days a piece...
Big, big hugs (and PRAYERS) to you!
Erin

Nothing is ever simple!
so we'll see. With the long weekend and all, probably won't know anything until tuesday.
Love Lizzie
