I prefer having the IV line in that way there are not so many jabs all the time. Guess they can't always do this though.

Anyway, the way I am viewing it all is that all this is necessary if I want to get better. I keep visualising myself next week being over this and being healthier. Every week in the future is a new clean week that I will be a step closer to health, wealth (ha!!! ) and HAPPINESS!!! :)
So I am hanging in there - you do the same - me thinks we are all brave woman for doing all of this.
Bright blessings
