I got my second infusion of Remicade this past Friday-- September 19.  It went great.  This time I made sure I took my ipod so I could listen to relaxing music.  Time flew by very quickly.

 

On this day I made sure I had a lot of water so my veins could be nice and plump....and noticeable.  I don't like drinking water before 10am, so it wasn't easy...I had to force myself to drink it.  I didn't want to have the same experience that I had the first time (read "My experience with my first Remicade Infusion" for details). 

 

I felt very sleepy after the infusion, so I slept for several hours.  I felt tired for the rest of the day.
