The treatments take 4-5 hours and during that time you get to relax in an oversized recliner. For this treatment I packed much lighter, instead of a duffle bag and my handbag, I bought a North Face backpack, and everything fit inside. I took my new book Native American Myths by Matt Clayton, my ancestors were Cherokee and I wanted to learn more about their beliefs. When I wasn’t reading, I indulged in my favorite pastime by listening to music.
Here is what I listen to
Adele 21
Adele 25
John Mayer Born and Raised
One Republic Dreaming Out Loud
REO Speedwagon You Can’t Tune A Fish
Pharrell Williams Happy
Paul Carrack Tempted
Fleetwood Mac Crystal
It was so nice to relax with my feet up with my eyes closed and listen to some great tunes.
The treatments had a few hiccups. The first needle didn’t go in right so she had to use the vein next to it which was successful. It was a very slow morning but my nurse let my first bottle of medication run dry so they had to prime the line and she let it dry again with my saline. A small price to pay to get better.
The first two days after treatment you feel sluggish and can have a headache.
This time my treatment took five hours and by the time I got home I was starving and had not taken my morning medication.

Today is better. I’m still a bit fatigues but it should pass tomorrow. At least my number is up to over 900 which is what the doctor wanted. Still having problems with anermia so I’ll wait to see what he wants to do about it.

Thank you. My blood work was good in that I’ve was a tad over 900 which is what the doctor wanted. I’m still struggling with anemia and waiting to hear what he wants to do about it. Thanks for the kind words.

I’m still a bit sluggish but took a nap this morning and feeling good now. It’s no fun but if I have fun while there it passes pretty quickly. Thank you for the kind words.
