Yesterday I got my IGG infusion and after all my concerns about the side effects (fever, chills, rigors - just like when I went septic and into ICU) I'm happy to say I had no problems! They're still having problems taking my blood from my new line, but my pal Tim in Blood Draw makes it work every time. After the infusion I had the dressing changed on my line and they told us we were good to leave and head home. So that's what we did today! It feels wonderful to be home but also I'm kind of restless with all the things I would like to catch up on. But I know I can only do very little at a time so I just have to keep reminding myself. Not only that, but I do a bit and I have to rest for a while. Tomorrow I have three appointments at the clinic and the plan is to take my line out. While that will be a good thing, again it makes me nervous that they will take it out without any drugs or anything. I say they're going to yank it out, Marc says they will remove it. We'll see......
Welcome home Judy, I can only imagine how it feels for both you and Marc to have you there. There truly is nowhere like home.
