Re: First infusion. The next day--Judy

[Guest guest]

Hi all,

Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers, they work!

My infusion went off without a hitch, PIECE OF CAKE. (i can say that now)

well, to begin with, my veins are very shy. They found one that was abused

repeatedly. blood work before and after the infusion plus the Iv itself.

Guys, it was worth it. I felt a differance last evening, I could get off the

sofa alot easier. Today when I got out of bed I was without pain except for

my left foot and ankle.

I went to the Y for my pool exercises, no pain.

I noticed when I washed my hands that I could dry them without pain. This

stuff is great!

And my dr.'s nurse suggested that I might even return to work maybe in their

office, how cool is that?

I was afraid to say anything too soon, I thought it might be all in my mind,

but I think it's real.

Sorry, I'm going on and on. But please, if you get the oppertunity to try

this, TAK IT.

Thank you all, truly

Judy,

EXCELLENT!!!!!! This is the kind of feedback that I have heard about and

read about. I hope that I will be in that special club too! One more week

from tomorrow and I get my stab at it. Was it a good idea to pack the small

care package, do they mind if you do something during the infusion? Were you

able to drive afterwards?

Well, with your post and 's my confidence in the medical field could

increase even more! Have a good restful evening so you can attack tomorrow

with the same

enthusiasm and strength.

Gentle, tender, longing for my turn, angel hugs,

Fabulous news, Judy! And a job offer, too (that's VERY cool)! What a day

you had. How was the movie?

Thanks for letting us know what a great response you had to Remicade.

I'm sure it's real.

Enjoy how you're feeling, but please don't hurt yourself doing any

cartwheels or anything like that.
