Thanks Guys....lol
I got myperipheral last night and i will get my midline when i get home from work today around dinner time.

~ Skye, ABSOLUTELY we are both gonna hit the 50% mark because i know we both want it badly

~ lightNlife , I usually tend to wait till i am so obviously sick it takes a good bit to
get me better. Honestly sometimes it is hard to differentiate when i am actually sick or just having a crappy cf day.

~ Lynda, LOL ....yep thats me, the junkyard <img src="i/expressions/dog.gif" border="0">


The only thing i will have a problem with is my iv schedule . I read it to my mom and she said <i>"well when do you sleep?"</i>

6am - Zosyn ( runs for 30 minutes)
7am - Merrem ( runs for 90 minutes)

12noon-Zosyn
3 pm- Merrem

6 pm - Zosyn
11pm- Merrem

Midnight -Zosyn

What i did this morning since i am not an early riser is set my alarm for 6 am hook up the Zosyn and set the alarm for 7 am ( fell back asleep), then @ 7 got up to unhook the Zosyn and hook up the Merrem. Then i reset it for 8:30am ( fell back asleep) got up when the alarm went off and unhooked and went back to sleep for another hour. It's a tough schedule but the payoff will be worth it if i feel great ( or even close to it) afterwards <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Diane,

Good luck, girl! Sounds like there are a lot of us in the <img src="i/expressions/iv.gif" border="0"> club lately! Good for you for suggesting something different. I will probably do that in the future if the tobra and merrem don't give me results. Usually I'm on tobra and merrem or tobra and aztreonam. same ol same ol.

Anyway, I'm keeping you in my thoughts and prayers!!! Hope the PICC went well tonight. <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">

Diane,

Just a suggestion for IV's. One thing I do that helps with the sleep schedule. Instead of getting up to go to the fridge; I pack a small cooler with overnight IV's and all supplies. That way I stay in bed and have everything right next to me that I need. If I get up and go down to the fridge, it makes it harder to go back to sleep. Just a thought. Not having to get out of bed during your sleep schedule makes it much easier to relax and go back to sleep.
