Infusion Update and Miscellaneous

Tomorrow will make 2 weeks since I had my 1st infusion of Ocrevus. I don't think there is been any improvement in my functionality but it is no worse than it was 2 weeks ago. My 2nd infusion will be Friday. Tomorrow I get a hepatitis B booster shot. It was up to me I would say I've had enough vaccinations. I've had one hepatitis B vaccine and one booster. I told my wife I was fine with skipping the last 2 booster shots, one tomorrow and another in 6 months. Of course I was overruled and tomorrow I get the vaccine booster. It's pretty frustrating all glass and getting into the van and driving downtown, getting into that office, waiting for the room to open, then all the reverse after the vaccination that takes about 30 seconds. Seems to me they could just mail it here and she could give it to me. All they do is jam it into my arm and pushed the plunger down. They don't look for a vein nor any special thing so it seems like anybody could do it. We used to give our horse its own vaccines so it's not like we don't know how.
So I'm going to be a good boy and do what my wife tells me, but I will be whining about it the whole time. Now I see why kids get candy bars in the grocery store. Maybe she'll take me out for cupcake afterwards. I always used to like salty snacks but I've come to like sugary ones more. Donuts, cupcakes, pancakes, Kit Kat's are my favorites now. My favorite probably is blueberry pancakes with sugar and cinnamon on them. Now I'm making myself hungry.
I'm sure I will be posting Friday since it will be a long day at the hospital the infusion. I find it hard to post on the weekends because I'm not here by myself and can use my voice software. Maybe I'll post tomorrow, I can't really tell until I get up and see how I feel. I usually don't feel bad just unmotivated and lazy. So the days I don't post don't worry about me I'm fine just lazy. It's a real chore to make corrections with this silly software. When I said donuts earlier the voice software put in gonads instead. I'm really glad I caught that mistake before I posted it or you guys would think there is something seriously wrong with me mentally not just physically!
