Natalie, I'm glad the infusion itself went well. I know what you mean about feeling crappy after an infusion. If possible sleep as much as you can after the infusion. That's how I try to get through the post infusion headache, aches and pain all over, the abdominal pain and nausea.
Is there any chance to nurse was joking??????????????? Otherwise, that was a very rude comment and she needs to be reported and given some sensitivity lessons. How dare she say that. A nurse dealing with MSers should know better.
hugs,
Shayna

I'm a little irritated though. 2 other women were with me getting infusions. I got up to pee and of course took the IV pole with me. When I came back the nurse said, "well we decided that you are not sick enough to be here. You just move too fast." That really bummed me out--what about all of those MS patients who have invisible symptoms? Everyone's MS is their own MS. Ergh. I just said "well I have other issues I deal with "
