Pam your post couldn’t come at a better time! I’m on my way (as we speak) to get my infusion. All the unknowns sorta overwhelmed me the other day, but w/your post & quite a few others responses to my post on the anxiety of it all I truly feel very comfortable going through the stuff that is necessary for me to receive my infusion. Praise be to God!
