Finally have an appointment!
Got a letter from the hospital yesterday to say I have a appointment for my first Rituximab treatment... on the 23rd Feb... my birthday!
Happy Birthday to me!
I don't mind that it's my birthday. Just want it over with. My Grandma most likely will be with me for company, which I feel a lot better about. Nothing worse than being in a strange place on your own, not feeling well. But hope the side-effects will be limited. From what they've said, it sounds hopeful.
