Try to drink as much water as you can ( not more than 120 ounces) the day before,the days of, and the days after, this is done to reduce headaches. I also try to move as much as I can, while having the infusion, all that water helps ;).

Just found out that I am going this monday for my first round of 5 also. Mine is SFN due to Sjogren's with muscle wasting and balance problems. Pain has been a recent phenomina. Fingers crossed to both of us.

Hi! I’m from australia too, with sfn symptoms and autonomic symptoms like dry mouth since a vaccine 5 weeks ago. not sure if there’s a way to message me or not, but i’d really love to learn who diagnosed your sfn and how did they determine you had it - was the lumbar puncture the final decider ? i know there’s a type of antibody they can test for as well. no idea what’s available in this country!
