Last night at treatment, my nurse Theresa told me that I will have my time reduced from 3.5 hours to just 3! I am so happy! That extra half hour is really long! My labs are looking great and I have been getting real good clearance , near 90 percent!

Wonderful news for you, Karen!
You are so, so right- that 1/2 hr
can feel like an eternity. They
lowered my husband's time by
15 mins, and you would think he
hit the lottery!
Glad to read your clearance is so good!
Anne
