Mayo - Round two

Welcome back Sports Fans to the daily updates from Rochester.

So we got up at 5 AM to be on the road by 6, just in case the Winter weather had arrived ahead of schedule. At Mayo by 8:30, signed in ready to go. The nice nurse picked her up and took her back to the room, where the Plasmapheresis was to take place. I gathered my things and settled down for a three hour stint of emailing and work. Half an hour or forty-five minutes later they returned.
After some discussion it turns out that we should not have taken some of the medications on the list. So they are unable to do the procedure for at least twenty four hours. So the rest of Monday is shot for any medical procedures. They also had determined that she would be a hard stick and that it would be much better to go ahead and get the 'lines' put in as soon as possible. We already knew she was a hard stick, but that is beside the point. So the out patient procedure is scheduled for Tuesday 9:00 AM.
They do not want to perform the Plasmapheresis procedure on her after the 'surgery', so will need to wait a day. This means it will be Wednesday before we can get the first of the five Plasma Exchange sessions started.
They still want to do the five sessions, so looks like we will be here through Sunday.
In the meantime, we have checked into lodging just 5 minutes from the Clinic.
Have nestled down for the night to avoid the bitter cold that is outside.
Best to all, stay tuned for more play-by-play...
