Hello Everyone,
Tammy and I are going to U of M bright and early on Monday morning, 7:30 am, to get Rituxan!
Rituxan the greatest Mono-clonal antibody this side of the Mississippi.
It is a good day when we can get excited about a drug that is designed to save your life!
I will let you know how it went!
Ok, I completed the first day of Rituxan only after 8 hours in the hospital.
It was not fun!
I thought I was going to make it with no problems but then it happened.
Tight Chest, Fever, Chills - I did not feel good.
They stopped giving me the drug so my body could adjust. After I was feeling better they started it back up and I completed getting the full dose.
We got home around 4:00 and I went to bed to wake up with a fever 102. I got Tylenol and felt much better.
Slept for 14 hours and I am at work on Tuesday!
Crazy isn't it!
My goal is to keep everything as normal as possible, so, I plan to work as much as possible.
Keep checking back for more stories!!!
Until we Meet Again,
Gary
