Infusion:

Questions before the infusion take about 10 minutes.Temperature & blood pressure are taken. The infusion is an hour then you have to sit and they have to watch u for an hour after the infusion to make sure u don't have a reaction. Every 3 or 4 months they will draw blood and check it before the questions. 

(My comment: The wait for 1 hour after the infusion is by FDA Regulation.)
