All good reasons for getting an infusion. I have great veins. They let a nursing student get some practice at my last infusion. I agreed --- she missed --- I let her try again because I was a student too a long time ago. I kept my mouth shut but I was willing to give her some suggestions. She was being supervised and only lacked some confidence.

I'm jealous about your infusion recliners. I get some benadryl and tylenol 30 minutes before my infusion for any reactions. I usually fall asleep even though the recliners aren't very comfortable.

Lucky for you & your clinicians that you have great veins! As mentioned, I have to improve mine with copious amounts of water the day/eve before--very effective, though!

I'm sending positive vibes for new heating/massaging infusion recliners your way! (I forgot to take advantage of their benefit for the 1st time last month. (Also, the old recliners were ancient.) Wow, mental note to self to remember!) Fortunately, I have not had any infusion reactions to date; glad that your routine is working for you.
