Guest guest Posted August 9, 2008 Report Share Posted August 9, 2008 Hi guys! Mark had his first subQ Thursday and it went very smooth. He was pretty anxious & upset about the whole thing, but I think most of it was from being in the hospital that has a lot of bad memories for him. I'm trusting he will be much less anxious when we do it in our home this week with our regular nurse. They used 3 sites on him (which I thought was maybe a lot for a 45lb 7 yr old?), and he had hardly any swelling. However, yesterday he developed the big D and had quite a few bouts with it, although he was otherwise fine. I am wondering if you've experienced this with Viva? At this point I am not sure if it could be the Viva or just plain nerves. Like I said, he was pretty anxious. Any input would be appreciated! Thanks! mom to Mark 7 CVID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
