Guest guest Posted August 20, 2002 Report Share Posted August 20, 2002 Hi Tess, Sorry about the short note earlier. Talk about a fast heart rate. I love the Backstreet Boys. Be still my heart. I did have the VCR working too. Mmmmm, Mmmm, Mmmm. Anyway. My parents stopped over tonight to show me their new toy. They were on their way home from buying a new van. This thing is loaded. I'm surprised that you actually have to be in the thing to drive it. So we were all out in the yard in our pj's checking it out. Bet the neighbor loved that!!!! Then it was Wyatt's bedtime. But he had some tickles that just had to be let out of him. And now it is my time to relax. Like I said earlier, the remicade went well and I feel pretty good. Funny, but I am feeling a little dizzy, but not too bad. Just enough to be noticed. Plus, I ate something that I shouldn't have and now I have some terrible bloating and gas. Took some simethicone and it is easing up a bit now. It will be better in the am, I'm sure. Actually I was surprised at how good I felt after the infusion. I was worried that I would be sick. The nurse commented that I am their youngest remicade patient. I was afraid to ask if there was a prize for that. She went to stick me for the IV and the vein rolled, but she found it pretty quick with no problem. Other than that, it was really smooth. I napped through most of it. They kept a blood pressure monitor on me and it checked my vitals every 30 minutes and before I knew it, it was over. Now I am just hopeful that it works. I plan on school shopping for Wyatt tomorrow. He needs some clothes and that's about it right now. We already have just about everything else. Plus you never know what they need until after the first week anyway. I am hoping things will calm down after he goes back to school. It will keep him occupied anyway. I am going to get some rest now and try to get some sleep. Let me know how the tests went. Thinking of you.
