BMT DAY +124

Someone woke up in a good mood at clinic today.

She was even able to visit some of her favorite BMT nurses today.

Normally sheโ€™s napping (clinic days make for early mornings) and they donโ€™t get to make any visits.

Luckily, she was a happy baby and her nurses enjoyed spending a minute with her.

As far as clinic, all of her labs looked great!

Theyโ€™re going to push her Methadone wean out to Monday rather than today.

That gives her about a week and a half between dropping the dosage. This extends her recovery time.

So, drop date. 48 hours before symptoms start. Another 48 hours of symptoms. Then a couple of good days before beginning the cycle again.

โ€œSlow and steady.โ€

She received her TMA infusion and theyโ€™ve sent her labs to Cincinnati to see if she can stop the infusions.

Reminder: this is the $30K per dose medication

Theyโ€™ve also stopped another stomach medicine and are weaning her off one other med.

Stopping the TMA med would be a big win and, altogether, itโ€™s great to see her medication list dwindle down.

She came home on 14 different medicines.

Oh, plus her weight was up! Sheโ€™s almost back to her pre-BMT weight!

Keep going, Avi!
