Plugged into the Martix-an

I started my first course of Rituxan infusion yesterday. It went alot better than anticipated. 6 hours was a bit boring though. I packed the equivalent of a road trip's worth of things to do- but I found myself so spaced out I couldnt focus on anything not even tv. Side effects that made an appearance were hives on my face and a sore throat. Both of which were quickly alleviated with some Benadryl. In fact I felt more ill and woozy from that than from the Rituxan itself! I didnt get any side effects after I was done either. So that's 1 down, 3 more to go. Wish I had something more exciting to report about the experience, but maybe time will tell in the next couple weeks if there's any side effects of note that pop up.
