Moving fast
Ok. Just started new meds today. Along with my prednizoen and imuran Dr. added Iron suppliment and Vitamin D supplement. Also started Imuran today. She said I could start with just 1o0 mg daily for a week to see if I have any bad reactions to it..then next week move to 200 mg daily. I know this is not a mircles drug but hoping it does help aleviate the symptoms of this terrible disease. When I spoke with Dr. yesterday on phone she said my hemoglobin was very very low and wanted me to have a blood transfusion. I hesitated and waited to talk it over with with then called Dr. back yesterday evening and said we would do it. Just now got a phone call from the Cleveland Clinic asking if I could possibliy make it out there today..which was no not going to go without wife being with me. Way way to weak for that, so they are setting it up for tommorow..Wow..they move fast when you tell them you have short time insurence LOL. Was told after the transfusion I"ll feel tons better.. that my low blood and iron is what is make me so weak. Believe it or no not i'm excited bout it. Want my strentgh back. I get exhausted walkin down hall way or sometimes nod off just setting up at computer ;((((. Had nice evening last night, my 12 year old came in and set with me to watch the Cardinal and Braves game. Something he dont' usually do. Matter of fact he set with me most of the evening playing on laptop or watching game. Right now i'm pretty tired but feel I need to stay awake..see the effects of these new pills before I totally relax. And of course wait on another phone call bout the transfusion...whether i'm to continue taking my meds or stop till its done or what. Just want to do whats right . don't want to do anything that would set us back any. ok...nuff for now. WoW still down so bored to death and will prob play on yahoo messinger.

No, WOW still down... that stinks. Hee Hee. I remember the wifey having to get Iron Tranfusions, I believe after those she felt a lot better. SO hopefully after a little more blood in your system you will be energized and ready to go
