D-Day #2

Daratumumab Infusion 2 over and done!  We were there at 6 AM, and we were out the door by 2 PM.  Because of my reaction on Day 1, Dr. Zand treated today as a bit of a do-over, and the daratumumab rolled out in a 1000 ml bag.  Since it was a reaction-free day, the daratumumab for Round 3 will come in a 500 ml bag–same amount of the drug, only a little more concentrated.  Katie, today’s nurse, predicts that next week I will be out the door no later than noon.  This sounds like an excellent plan.  Apparently Benadryl renders me lights-out, because I slept through most of the today’s event.

Warm socks, happy feet!

I’m not feeling bad today at all.  We’ve already had Olive out on two post-infusion walks, and I predict a possibly restless night’s sleep tonight, given the steroids of the day.  Maybe a few more Olive walks will do the trick.

I pack up in the morning to fly to LA on business.  I’ll head back to Rochester on Wednesday night on the red-eye.

Two down, fourteen to go:
