HI guys, saw my GP today and even though my neutrophils are up she and my rheumy agree that I am at my best at the moment and am not likely to get any better so we must go ahead with the infusion so keep your fingers crossed that I don't react as I am known for it, I will travel to the Sunshine Coast on Weds to the Nambour hospital and have it done there. If only Cordy was well enough, she lives not too far from there, I was hoping to meet her for a coffee and some sisterly hugs and support but unfortunately she is quite bad at present as you know and I can't drive, hubby is dropping me at the hospital as he has an appointment elsewhere, thanks in advance guys for your support, as you are always so encouraging. Janie. Woot! Here's hopin hunny!!!! *attempts to cross fingers* Thanks a bunch Katie, lord that was quick!!!!! What are you on? I want some, love Janie.
Pah! I'm on lack of sleep. This is one of my two overnight shifts. (it's only 5am here!) I've been up all night, and I want my pillow!!!!
Be sure to let us know how the infusion goes. We'll cut you some slack if we don't hear from you on wed /thrus. Infusions can kick your butt! But you better check in by friday!
Janie all the best to you! I wish Cordy was feeling better, but to you I hope this helps a bunch, and there is no reaction.
(thanks to Katie...I just learned I cannot cross my fingers...so figuratively I can!)
Good luck with your infusion, Jane. I did good with my first orencia infusion. I didn't have any reactions until my second one.Good luck. I hope the Orencia does everything for you that the commercials here claim. Please let us know how you're doing.
My thoughts and prayers will be with you. Big gentle hugs
Nini
