Remicade : Day 14

Second infusion today, no problems.  No weird reaction on the skin this time, so that was a relief.  The nurse just couldn't get the needle in my veins....got it on the third try. 
I find it strange while I'm being infused, because the Remicade is cold, it's cold going in and makes my skin cold around the infusion site and up my arm about 6 inches.....weird.

On the up side, my weight went up 1.4 kg's from the last infusion and I have noticed that the two fistulas I have, have gone wayyyyyyyy down and have stopped draining.  That part, I'm excited about!  Those damn things are very annoying and painful sometimes, but so far so good.
