Over the past month or so, I have noticed a slight increase in
my leg strength. This means better balance & walking in
the house with no cane, some times.

In regards to my strength getting better; today I stopped by my
folks' place, and tried going up the three steps from the garage
using only one of the handrails. I did it! And when I left, I went
down the stairs, stopped, turned around and went back up
using one handrail again, just to show mom. It feels so good to
to see these improvements.
On that note, I've also used their front steps a few times, using
both handrails.
Overall, steps, stairs, curbs and uneven surfaces are getting easier
to navigate.

My session started in the hallway. Third time in a row. Discussed this
with the nurses; they are frustrated due to constant overbooking.
They gave me a survey to fill out, which I did.
My post IVIG treat; rootbeer/grape/rootbeer.
A few hours later I noticed this on my arm. It looked like my skin
was peeling. This is where my IV was leaking for about 30
minutes; the connection between the IV and tubing wasn't tight.
On my arm is dried IVIG and it just washed off.
Today was one of those days.....
No disabled parking at the hospital. Luckily I found a regular spot
that I could use.
Then, the app I use to pay for parking kept erroring. Took thirty
minutes for it to work.
And then, I start my IVIG session in the hallway due to overbooking.
And then, I had IVIG leak all over my arm.
And then, on the way home, I stopped at Staples to pick up
something, and no disabled parking, until I found a regular spot
that would work, and as I walked to the store, two disabled spots
were available.
And then I went home.
