I do daily IV through my PICC line, 1 L saline with vitamins over 8 hours. I have a nurse that comes once a week to clean and change the dressing, and I hook up the saline every evening before bed myself. It's a miracle for me! Since starting treatment a few months ago, I almost feel "normal"! My heart rate and blood pressure are now sustained at an average rate, and my debilitating fatigue is gone! I usually just need to take a nap every day and am actually able to function normally the rest of the day! I went from being stuck in bed, to working full time and helping to maintain our house. I've heard that the longer the saline drip is, the better your results will be. So maybe those of you that aren't getting great results should try switching to a longer drip. I'm getting a port placed next week to continue treatment so that I have the option to swim and do other things without tubes hanging out of my arm 24/7. We're also going to see if we can cut back my IV to every other day with the same great results I've been getting.
