infusion

I went to Mount Auburn Hospital, had the Ocrevus infusion, and came straight home. It was significantly faster than the last couple of times, partly because they're experimenting with running the drug through the IV faster, and partly because I lucked into a quiet morning, so I didn't spend a lot of time waiting for the nurse to be available to change what was in the IV, or for the pharmacist to mix the IV. (IV benadryl, dexamethasone, and Pepcid, and 2x325 Tylenol pills.)

I'm not surprised that she asked if I had the lisinopril with me, given what I've told them about how I take it; I was surprised that she remembered that I ordered a salad for lunch six months ago, and asked if I wanted the same thing this time.

Now I am home, and have had another cup of tea.
