IV Zip Hoodie

Preparing

I have not started dialysis at this time but wanted to be prepared for this big event in my life. Saw your ad on facebook and was happy to know I could stay warm while being treated. I’m going to wear my hoodie as the weather gets cooler. Thank you for this blessing.

Love It!

I love how soft, warm, and functional my new hoodie is. I used it at my last infusion. It is always cold there, and I wasn’t cold at all. Normally I have a jacket or sweater that I wear and drape it over both shoulders with the arm that doesn’t have the iv in it, is in the sleeve. I did not have to do this with my new hoodie! Both arms were in the sleeve, and due to the double zipper, after they put my iv in, they were able to pull the top zipper down most of the way to hold the warmth in. I sit for 2 1/2 hours, every 8 weeks. HUGE difference on my comfort level! I would highly recommend. I’m going to be honest, the price had me hesitating. I even ordered two different ones off of Amazon, both were popular brands. They were both sent back. I wasn’t comfortable in them and the materials were definitely not the same (or even close). This isn’t just a comfort purchase, but it is also a wise investment! I normally wear a medium, and that was what I ordered the first time. It was WAY too big, even for layering. I reordered it in a small, and sent the medium back. The small is still a tad too big, but I want it a bit big for layering purpose when it turns winter here in Oklahoma. I definitely would go down one size, but that depends on how you like outerwear to fit. Make the investment and be comfortable on those not so comfortable days!

Warm comfort

I used my sweatshirt for the first time this week for my infusion. I stayed warm and comfortable throughout the whole procedure. The zippers worked great and the dark green color drew compliments.
