Is the neurologist not on call tonight that you can call and speak to him or an associate?

In the morning call again and ask to speak to someone in change that can give you some answers, or don't accept the infusion until you get some answers from a qualified person on staff.

I hope someone here can give you some insight if they had similar issues.


Oh, does your medical ins have a 24 hr nurse line?
you could call and talk with them about what is happening symptoms wise.

how quickly did they run the infusion?

did you feel...puffy and swollen after the infusion? if your hands are feeling more numb, the extra fluid from the IV could be making you feel that way.

I was like that earlier this month. I drank extra water to make myself pee more to get rid of all the extra fluid from my IVSM

I asked the infusion nurse to run my IV slow, because I dont like the way it makes me feel if they do it over two hours. I didnt mind sitting there for four hours or more. I had tons of stuff to read, and an ipad to play with.
