And so going for my first dose, this is in March of 24, feeling great, it's IV, inter, whatever.

And we start that and then about two weeks later I started feeling really bad.

I started running high fevers all around the clock, the night sweats were horrible, but I was like, it's fine, my immune system's waking up, it's fighting, I'm not scared of fevers, we're gonna be okay.

And then it got even worse though and the spot, so the lymph node was in my groin and it started out like the size of a marble probably.

I mean it was like the size of a grapefruit.

It was huge and inflamed and red and I could barely walk.

No, literally it was this, like in this region it was this big.

And so I'm like, Lord, what is going on?

And I can say it now because it has a happy ending, but I mean, in those weeks, just being a mom of young children and not being able to go upstairs to put them to bed and make their meals and take care of them, I mean, it was the hardest two weeks of my life, okay?

Yeah.

It's horrible.

It looks horrible.

I feel horrible.

So I go in.

So the first dose, they said, wait four weeks, come back for the second dose.

So I go in for the second one, and I feel terrible.

And I tell my oncologist, I'm like, what do people do?

If they feel this bad, do they do the second dose?

What are people doing?

And she said, well, usually they opt out.
