Second remicade infusion today. No problems so far. Also found out results from sleep study done a couple of weeks ago...bummer.. I do have severe sleep apnea... so now I get to start that round of diagnostics... On a good note... I can stop taking plaquenil and begin tapering off prednisone.
I did already feel better from the first infusion two weeks ago. I was actually able to help husband clean house this weekend... hmm, that may have been a mistake (lol)... he'll expect it every weekend now! I was also able to open a jar which hasn't been possible for a couple of years.. Small milestones, but it's progress.
All in all, it's been a good week. I actually accomplished some things at work this week AND managed to stay awake 'til 10 or so...as opposed to going to bed at 7pm! Quite an improvement... of course I wasn't doing much just escaped with a book with no redeeming qualities. It's a start. I go in on Tuesday for my second remicade treatment. The first one was a piece of cake, hopefully this next one will go well.
