My Last PICC Treatment

Woohoo! I just finished doing treatment #84! MY LAST ONE!!

My son climbed up in my lap and took a picture with me doing my very last treatment with the PICC line. Tomorrow, I will hopefully get my line pulled! But as of right now, they can’t find the orders from the doctor’s office. That is one headache I will definitely be glad to be rid of because her office SUCKS at follow-up with everything surrounding my PICC.

But, none of that for now. Today is a good day because I am done with my IV treatments! No more Rocephin! I will be able to take a normal bath, take a shower for the first time in 12 weeks, wash my own hair, pick things up with my left arm and best of all, get all of this adhesive off my arm!

I leave to go out of town on Wednesday so hopefully they will find the orders tomorrow and this thing will be out of me for good! Can’t wait!!

Oh and I also added the 7-Keto today as well. So lots of changes.

In the past ten days, I’ve…

  • had my gallbladder removed
  • finished my last Rocephin treatment
  • reduced Cortef dosage
  • reduced Armour dosage
  • added three new supplements (Ginseng, Gingko Biloba and 7-Keto)
  • been out of work (first day back was today)

I’m still not feeling that great but my period started today so that’s to be expected. Not to mention all of the changes recently. So I just need time to adjust.

I’m dreading starting the Doxy again because of the nausea but I’m hopeful that the lower dosage will keep it away. We’ll see!

I’m just happy I’m done with my PICC!!
