Day 5

Days one through four were perfect!  Day five was awful!  
Part of the reason was that instead of Monday through Friday, which is the way most people do Lemtrada, I did Tuesday through Saturday. During the week, I had my routine, being there on a Saturday completely threw me off. 
Instead of having Lloyd with me, my mom was there. Lloyd had to come up for a visit though, he had to run up my blood pressure medication when that spiked for a reason I couldn't figure out at the time. Then I did; I started my period.  Between the Lemtrada, the steroids, and being cooped up, my body was going crazy!  
Treatment week is now behind me, never to be repeated. Yes, I know I'm going to have another three days of treatment a year from now, but three is a lot less than five. I also know that I'm going to have other challenges with this treatment. It's a marathon, not a sprint.
