69 Days - Once again it has been a bit since my
last post, but I have been trying not to jinx myself. You see, I just
went three days without a clinic visit. It may not seem like much but
it is a big milestone to not have to be seen by the doc's for three
full days. It shows that things are stabilizing more and more. It
doesn’t mean I am any better or capable- just more stable. This is
good as it can lead to the lowering of meds (and adding a few) to
make my clinic visits less frequent and shorter in duration when they
do happen. I guess this all means I am getting better. Not to gross
anyone out, but my biggest issue now is that my finger nails are
preparing to fall off. Its a lingering side effect of the GVHD (when
my hands were very bad) its effecting my ability to do things with my
hands again. Typing and holding a book has become a challenge, AGAIN.
This will be a short term issue but it is rather annoying. Other than
that, my energy is starting to grow and I am getting a bit stronger
as Karen and I try to go for nightly walks.
So the upward swing continues, its all
good news.
