Had my second infusion this morning. I figured I would be ok to drive myself afterwards so I didn’t ask anyone for help. Wellllll…. maybe I should have. The infusion went without a hitch. Only issue was there was someone doing maintenance in the building and the guy was doing something to the bathroom ceiling and when he did he created sheetrock dust.

Day 1 Infusion 1… It didn’t help it was cold already lol. Left there and went to get something in my stomach. Have another one this week.
