It\u2019s on a pump. I had to learn to do all these with the nurse. Now she comes four hours a day in the evenings to do my other IV but I have to do this IV before she comes for the 4-hour IV, and then I start this at 4 o\u2019clock, the Imipenum, and I have that overnight. 18 hours a day. It\u2019s a lot of setup.\u201d (Imipenum is an antibiotic used in conjunction with Cilastatin to treat infections caused by bacteria, according to the <a href=\"https:\/\/my.clevelandclinic.org\/health\/drugs\/18863-imipenem-cilastatin-injection\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Cleveland Clinic<\/a>.)<\/p>\n<p>Dressed in exercise gear with a bandage wrapped around one of her biceps, the reality star also provided a window into her lifestyle via the clip\u2019s caption. \u201cFor the first time, I\u2019m showing you what my life has really looked like behind closed doors.
