I had my 2nd infusion last Thursday. I had to wait almost 2 hours for the drug to be prepared prior to the infusion, but no other hiccups :)

Isn't this crazy looking? It's a little safety that goes over the IV needle once it's pulled out. So. Cool. |

more blood |

This is my less than interesting view. |

I had to have blood drawn on the other arm after the infusion was over. |
I'm not experiencing any side effects, that I know of. I thought I was getting a lot of bloody noses after the first infusion, but now I'm thinking that might be more allergy related than clinical trial related. I AM pretty swollen, but that's nothing new. I'm also very very sleepy, which is getting frustrating. No matter what time I go to bed, I'm exhausted when I wake up. I drove to Eau Claire yesterday and had to stop at a grocery store on my way home to get a snack to help keep me awake. It was only a 2 1/2 hour drive. I'm heading to North Dakota next week...guess I better bring LOTS of snacks to help keep me awake ;)
