Out of “Isolation”, Loss of Hair again & Closed MRI – July 31, 2006

July 31, 2006

My 3 month follow-up appt was good.  My white blood counts rebounded incredibly in just one week & I no longer have to take antibiotics.  I have come Out of ISOLATION!  I am so happy to be among the “living” again.  My biggest issue is fatigue.  The Dr indicated it will be with me another 2 – 3 months.  I am still doing PT.

Just in time for the HEAT, I have again lost my hair entirely.  I am totally bald this time but it’s a temporary thing, thank goodness.  Truly a minor inconvenience for living!

I had a successful “closed” MRI but had to  be sedated to accomplish it.  A load was lifted from my mind/body today.  And only NOW can I really see the light at the end of the tunnel.  I have been very burdened over having to go back for this scan.  I never thought this kind of stuff would get to me but it did/does.  I will have one of these every 3 months for the next 2 years, oh joy.  I am THANKFUL they are willing to put a team together to get people like me thru this testing.  Ever grateful.
