Fighting Infection

I've had some folks contact me inquiring if I'm alright and wondering if the DBS blog will continue. First, thanks for being concerned enough about me to inquire, and second, the blog will continue. Just haven't had much to report. My status currently is healing!  I'm  taking 2 antibiotics every 12 hrs. One by oral, and one by Picc line. I plan my day around that. It takes 1.5 hrs to do a cycle, so if you do it at 11 am, you have to do the next one at 11 pm, and finish at 1230 am. The possible side effects from drugs are a couple pages long. Lab work shows my kidneys are still taking the beating I'm giving them for now, don't see them holding out a lot longer. I'm going to the gym and doing some machines and just a little spinning on the bike 🚴. Trying not to sweat because of the fear of some bad bacteria forming around the Picc line and forcing me to stop the therapy. I'm ready to get rid of it, I use 10 foot of Saran Wrap for waterproofing just to take a shower. People have asked me if I'll have the procedure again? As I run my hand over my scared head I sometimes wonder if it will be worth it, but for now I'm on the schedule for the end of March, so I've got about 1.5 months to get stronger before the repeat. It's 1230 am and my infusion is done for tonight. Tomorrow I get the Picc line dressing changed and lab work done. It will be an exciting day,maybe not, but I'll still be grateful for it. Write more later!
