I received the second half of first infusion today, two weeks after initial visit. The process went considerably smoother today (IV in on first try, no infiltration. Pretty much the same side effects as before (achy, flu-like feeling, fever and FATIGUE). Nothing I can't handle. People, we got this!

I have to let you know something I called the company that sets it up for taking the medicine, and wanted to make sure that it was all paid for and they said your coverage for 100% which I was happy about then I asked how much does it cost I hope you're all sitting there they said $65,000 I had to ask her again just to make sure I heard that correctly and she gave me the same figure of $65,000. Thank goodness I have insurance and the stuff that I do something good for me for that amount of money. Good luck bye for now
