Hi @Schwen
Congrats on getting the first lot out of the way. I also found this one heaps easier than the AC.
No fatigue, drove myself there and back for treatment, worked, did all my usual stuff. I had mild tingling in toes but only for about 24hrs after it..
I did have a weird skin rash, (my skin is a bit weird and sensitive at the best of times) so had to stay on prednisone the whole way through. This doesn't appear to be a normal side effect though.
It made me very sensitive to the sun. Apart from that, no issues.
All the best
