Aug 22nd

Mom woke feeling terrible today. I was groggy but I was able to force myself to get moving.

We got our phos iv, arm detox shot, mom's rTMS, went for a walk, got our butt shot. Mine hurt terribly, then our push #6.

At 2:30pm
Our dosage went up to .05 today. 

We are prepping our room with heating blankets, hearing pads, thermometer, nausea pills, and water.

Mom's fever got up to 103.1 at about 6:30pm. My fever got to 101.0 

Tip of the day: The more you shake, the less pain you feel later. On Monday the 21st we didn't shake at all, but our pain was outrageous! When I came in this morning I had decided that I couldn't go through that kind of pain again, so I was going to do the same dosage again (increasing seemed crazy to me). However after talking to others, I decided to go up and mom decided to stay. She was in worse shape than me. The moral of this story... keep increasing the dosage and pray you shake like crazy!
