Desensitization tomorrow!!
Wow so we went up to Denver to see the allergist about the horse desensitization and they called today and said come up Wednesday! So we are running around trying to get things done. I have to go in to the hospital here in the morning and get a new PICC line inserted. But thats a piece of cake. I will be in the ICU for 3-4 days and then they are going to do the horse ATG right after so that will take another 5-6 days. At least I'll be home before xmas! I am pretty nervous though, the Dr in Denver said that the horse desensitization isn't a common thing and has only been done about 6-7 times but he was pretty confident so it made me feel better.
Wish me luck! Tomorrow is going to be a busy day!
