Frustrated

Hi guys, well just heard from the Dr. and it going to apparently take 2-3 weeks to even get into the clinic for the IVS ... so, I called the MS clinic and spoke with them, and they said they would call me back, but that is what it looks like...... what the heck do we do now ????

Sorry, that's a long time to wait. When I've had the IVSM before, it doesn't really do much for me besides making me more miserable.  My face and neck turn bright red & hot, and my voice goes hoarse and I have tightness in my neck.  Then comes the feeling that my skin & body are bruised all over.  Racing heart, fever, etc.

I hope when you do get to have it, that it makes you feel a lot better than you're feeling now.

Take care,
Kelly

Wow.  Hear in Colorado, they call care Centrix and the IV Gear and IVSM show up by courier and the nurse stops by and starts the IV.  I give myself the IVSM for a few days and when I;m done, throw everything in the red bucket and they pick it up and take it away.
