The last few treatments have gone by pretty smoothly. The nurse showed up this morning to show us how to change the tubing for my treatments. Then she took a few vitals and was off. Tomorrow I get my PICC line, I am a little nervous but kinda relieved that I won't have the IV (which is further down my arm now) in anymore, but a huge line that goes straight to my heart. Now THAT is scary,but I am being told it will be a safe procedure. I watched a few videos and looked up online about the PICC so I am not as scared for it now.
I am sleeping downstairs again, but that is because it is easier to get around. I miss my bed. Maybe when the PICC is in I will go sleep in my bed...we will see.
okay so this medicine which is called Cefepime is working really well, so far NO big side effects, just burping...
Last night after my treatment my roomie had me rolling because he had MAJOR gas! (just thought I would put this in here for a little humor! Although he will not agree!)
This weekend both my kiddos have been pretty good with my IV and staying out of the way when I am getting my medicine. (which takes 30 minutes)
I am in search of my good batteries for my camera as my cell takes really crappy pictures.
Well I am going for now, hope everyone has a good ST. Patty's Day!!
