Home from 1st IVIG

[Suzan]

dd8's IVIG went very well today. She actually enjoyed the experience, got to make jewlelry, play the wii, watch movies and she didn't have any troubles.

 

But now that we are home, she does not feel well. Headache, pain in her legs, fingers and hands, a stomachache and trouble knowing what to eat or what she wants. I gave her benadryl and ibuprofen. Her sister is having a sleep over at a friends so I can just be with her. Right now she is going to sit on the porch with her doll and talk to a neighbor because she is really bored. She is not used to not being so active.

 

IVIG was low dose, one day. I know I think it should have been more but for our first experience I'm kind of glad now that this is it. Fingers are crossed that everything will be OK.
