Just got the call; my first dose is next Monday! My Dr. said to take Claritin 10mg. the night before and then again the morning before the infusion. I keep reading about people taking Benadryl; is the Claritin in place of any Benadryl they might give me there? Also, I have to take Zantac 75mg. the night before and morning of.
I'm just so nervous not knowing how it will be. I did read many of the posts here and it seems there are more good outcomes than not, so I'll try to be positive! They told me to bring any snacks, lunch, drinks if I want; are you able to get up and move around during the infusion? I can't imagine just sitting there for 5 hours! I'll bring my iPad and phone and they have wifi and tv there as well, so I guess I'll pass the time.
Thanks for any info!
