I'll attempt to make this blog a short and sweet one, though it may be hard since a lot has happened since I last checked in. I've been on an elephant ride, back to the ocean, got a new puppy, rode rollercoaster rides I NEVER thought I could stomach, climbed a tree, went hiking, kayaking...and the list goes on! All those things were fun, and a blessing that I got to experience them at least once in my life =)
The not so great things have been larger-somewhat. I had a hypoglycemic episode at the gyno due to poor judgement of insulin without eating enough. I blame it 100% on my melted gummy bears. I ended up getting my 1st ride in a an ambulance for it, so needless to say my bears and I aren't BFF anymore. I've actually been watching what I eat a lot more, I was sick of just gaining unhealthy weight. Now the exercise and food conciousness has helped all together. Oh, and I don't need to wear a wig anymore!!! The Biotin has helped it come back-and thicker too!
The next not so cool thing thats happened is my CMV(cytomeglaovirus) has come back. I was too immune surpressed causing it to rear its ugly head. But we caught it super early (as TGH is so great to do). I was feeling like crap Tuesday, after clinic Monday. Well, Monday's labs confirmed it was CMV. So Wednesday I had to go get a Cytogam IV again (borrrrring!) and changed some meds around. We were going for a good record of staying on the same list, but I needed a change. Today was better than yesterday, and I suppose tomorrow will be better than today. Every now and then, when I get kicked to my butt it reminds me how grateful I am for those wonderful days I have here...whether sick or not...I'm breathing and thats all I can ask for!!
PS-today is my 11 month breathiversary!!!!
