Safety 1st, O done!

[Jesmcd2]

Yes!! Finally! It's over! And went off without a hitch!

The hospital is very secure and guarded, which I found a bit surprising, but happy to see. Everyone had a mask. And check in at front lobby, never had to do that before. But ok. ☺️

Off to infusion, I actually got my own room. So I didn't have to wear the mask the entire time. I just put it back on when the nurse came in to check on me.

The place was deserted, I saw 2 other people there. Compared to the 8 the last time. But pretty sure we were just scattered.☺️

Thank Goodness it's over for another 6mons!🤣😂

Thank you guys for ALL your support! 🤗💕

Hurrah!!!!! Thanks for the report. It's so great!

[jimeka]

Pleased that it finally went ok, now I hope you are resting? 🤗

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to jimeka]

I am today! Nooooo energy today!😴 And nerve endings acting up so taking Benadryl and that doesn't help!😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[jimeka in reply to Jesmcd2]

Oh Benadryl and restless leg, I empathise 🤗

[rjoneslaw]

that's great

[Amore55]

YAY!

[DM0329]

Thanks for sharing! I'm so glad folks seem to keeping folks separated and farther away (even if curtains are drawn to provide a barrier). Today, one can never be too safe!

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to DM0329]

Your very welcome! I'm hoping it might put some people at ease a bit. They are taking this very seriously of course.

I think what really broke my heart was seeing the little ones with face masks. 🙁

How are you doing?🤗💕🌠

[DM0329 in reply to Jesmcd2]

I'm coping as well as can be expected during this "historic" time. I'm 26 years into my MS dx, and 23 years since starting on Avonex (which I still continue today).

Presently, I'm kinda glad I didn't take my new neuro's suggestion to maybe try Ocrevus. My theory is if stable "don't rock the boat"; if it ain't broke, why fix it?

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to DM0329]

I can truly understand that! And always wonder why Drs want to do that! 🤔 It is our boat after all! 🤗💕🌠

[pamgarner]

yeah!!!

[goatgal]

You certainly were challenged by transportation issues, so it's lovely that the rest of the process went so smoothly. You are so good at managing crises, perhaps you should be appointed to a board which can reorganize the systems that fail you by creating barriers?

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to goatgal]

Umm, yea, No! That is all government bs! And nope, I want nothing to do with it.🤣😂🤣 I'm just so glad it's over and next time I go up I shouldn't have this problem. 🤗💕🌠

How are you doing??

[bxrmom]

So glad that everything with your infusion went well and you don't have to do anything for another 6 months

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to bxrmom]

Umm well, hopefully? I have to call on Tuesday to make an appointment. 😒 😂 🤗💕🌠

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador]

I am so happy that your infusion went well without too many more hoops, Jesmcd2

My last one went as well as it could despite the very small moving hoops that I had to jump through to make it happen. I forgot to post about that one. Perhaps I should. I still need to initiate a complaint with the Commissioner of Insurance in MA. Yes, it was that serious... Enough about me, relax and I am sending you a gentle vHug and a vSmile my friend.

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to carolek572]

Yes you should post about it carolek572 !! ☺️ Fill us in, 🤗💕🌠

[carolek572 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Jesmcd2]

Okay, better late than never...

[Kitsey]

So glad your infusion was successful!

[Raingrrl]

Glad your infusion went well Jes! I am always more tired than usual the next day or so following an infusion. Used to happen to me on Tysabri too.

I think it’s because I’m so squeamish and sit rigidly still through the infusion or try to! I keep my arm covered so I don’t have to look at the needle! I’m a case, aren’t I? You’d think after years of infusions I would be used to it by now...NOPE!

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Raingrrl]

TY Raingrrl I have been tired, but I figure O is in overdrive killing cells off!😂🤣 Or doing something like that.

Hope you take a tablet or something to keep your mind off of things!? I look at it this way, the IV is feeding my MS, so it stops it! 😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[Tazmanian]

Glad it's over mine is in two weeks

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to Tazmanian]

I hope yours goes well Tazmanian !! 🤗💕🌠

[hairbrain4]

Glad it went well. I had mine 3 weeks ago and didn't have any problems. The infusion center is at the hospital in its own wing and everyone is one big room. Most of the nurses had masks on but very few of the patients did.

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to hairbrain4]

I forget where your from hairbrain4 🙁 It's hard to keep up on what state is doing what anyone.😂🤣 All I know is I'm not going out til next year!😂🤣🤗💕🌠

[hairbrain4]

I'm in Arkansas. We don't have much covid19 here. I have a better chance of catching a cold than covid19.

[Jesmcd2 CommunityAmbassador in reply to hairbrain4]

Well, a cold is better than covid!!! 😓🙁🤗💕🌠

[Tazmanian]

Thank goodness
