Guest guest Posted July 25, 2008 Report Share Posted July 25, 2008 Yeah we made it!! Overall it went well. Jake had A LOT of anxiety, at one point he was begging for us to just use his port. He also had moderate to severe discomfort at one of the needle sites for the first 20 minutes or so...we could not figure out if it was the wings of the needle or the Viva..everything looked good so we put some gause under the wings and stopped the infusion to that site. When we started the infusion back without his knowledge he screamed! But after 20 minutes of adjustments and such he calmed down and the remainder of the infusion went great. I was amazed at how easy it was! I was not nervous at all and I did not mess up!! I had a nurse over my shoulder the entire time. We are going back to the infusion center next Friday and then I am on my own! I feel so much freedom now!! Misty Jake age 6 selective antibody def.
