The Cytogam Cytomegalovirus Immune Globulin Therapy Dose #1 seemed to go well.
No need for EMS. No harsh reactions.
They caution about muscle pain later but it's way too nice of a day so I'm not going to anticipate any trouble.
Seems like a lot of hype for just an IV (as I've gotten pretty darn used to them) but it IS a blood product and as the nurse said: "Better to error on the side of caution."
Thanks for checking in here.
Have you ever thought of entering the National Spelling Bee??!!! Gee, I don't think I could ever spell some of the medicine you are taking!! Glad to read that all went well today with your treatments! As always, Jo :)
ReplyDeleteglad all went well today...hope the residual side effects are minimal. It was a beautiful day...hope you enjoyed it! :)
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful day today in so many ways!!! 😀
ReplyDeleteAfter they have replaced 2 organs in a body it is interesting how some of this high level stuff becomes more "routine"! Glad to hear that things went well and hope all is still going well. Continue to enjoy this early fall weather.
ReplyDeleteAnother day of "normal" for ya...I am so glad it was realtively uneventful. Just so happy that you are home and getting back to some kind of routine (?)
ReplyDeleteIt's hump day...enjoy it!
Any other adverse affects? How did clinic go today?
ReplyDeleteNo adverse effects to report so I'm 1/3 of the way there with the Cytogam.
ReplyDeleteNo visit to clinic today just more bloodwork but I did get a call from them - they are messing with my meds again.
They are increasing my Magnesium Oxide to 3x a day. Spacing out my 1500 mg of CellCept to 4x a day instead of just twice. And they have increased my Prograf to twice of what it was at night. Argh. Prograf is what has been causing me the tremors so this dosen't make me all too excited.
There is a bit of light though because as of Sunday, they are switching me to a long duration form of Prograf that should, in theory, lessen these tremors. So I remain hopeful and we'll see.
glad to hear that all went well with the IV. As for the jiggle in your meds, you can deal with this. I believe Bob! You have come thru so much already! One day at a time! Love ya! Cuz Laura
ReplyDeleteGood Morning!!!! Hope you have a great day and even better weekend bob! Know you are always in my thoughts :)
