Last Friday Saskia went to hospital and it was decided that the antibody therapy would be delayed with one week. Her shingles must be under reasonable control before she can start with the treatment.
She got some different medication for pain relief, which settled her down a little more. Last couple of days she was a little sick, but nothing really to worry about.
So this coming Friday Saskia will receive an instaflon in her shoulder. This is a little tube just under the skin, through which daily an injection will be given. Then Monday next week, she will be admitted into hospital. She'll get a PICC line in one of her arms. Both the PICC line as well as the port she still has will be used to administer the various medications she needs during her hospital stay.
