Tuesday appointments.

Every Tuesday is my day to get my blood counts checked and go over any problems i have had. Since I haven't had any problems my appointments go pretty easy. I get a little needle to draw blood from, check my temp. and weight, talk to the doctors and then I'm done. I have to wear a mask once I enter the hospital. Every two weeks I get a infusion of IVIG. This med. is used to help my immune system restore faster without any complications. It is given like a regular blood transfusion over an hour or two. Its a clear bubbly substances. I get pre-medicated before with Benadryl & Tylenol.
