Hi, everyone. Checking in from the infusion center. I'm glad the insurance company insisted I do it here, because we still have no power at home! We lost power during the storm on Sunday, and it's still out. Plus, there are fourteen, yes, fourteen kids at my house. And last but not least, if I weren't here at the infusion center, I would be totally out of touch, because we have no internet and no phone at home.

I had great IV sticks on Monday and Tuesday, but Wednesday was sort of a disaster. When they finally got it in, they told me to leave it in for Thursday and Friday, but last night it was really sore, so I bravely pulled it out. I decided I'd rather go through the sticking today than feel like a patient at home all evening, night, and morning. Today, I got a pretty good stick. So.

No real side-effects. A few headaches, but ibuprofen takes care of them. Not stronger yet. Nice infusion center. Thanks for helping me know what to expect.

Abby
