Hi Lori, yes, I was in for 2 days, out since last Wednesday and all seems okay on that front. I'll start taking antibodies prior to and following future cystoscopies, which I'll have quarterly for the next 2 years to prevent future UTIs. Fighting it out with Medicare, trying to get IVIG infusions for low immunoglobulins approved (I have Smoldering Myeloma) but they're resisting, it's a quite expensive treatment. They cited their medical reasons for rejecting treatments; I've given my hematologist/oncologist blood test results as evidence my antibodies are pretty shot. Thank you for your concern, it means a lot.
