Hey gang.

I am now:

2) dismissed

All I can say is baby steps...

I think that somewhere inside me (the magical thinking part), thought I would wake up after a few days
and bounce right out of bed, back into my previously active life.

While I'm not feeling much different yet*,
each morning I still wake up ready to get back to some sort of 'new' normal.

Wish me goodspeed, lords and ladies,
-Hop

* my personal baseline for feeling better, is the ability to walk up to the second floor without SOB, or have my heart pounding out of my chest.

Morning Hop,

Great to see  "dismissed"!  It is just a matter of time now.  You are on the good side of time too....  Is it moving slower than tx time for you?

Eat some lentils, hummus, sweet potatoes and butternut squash.  Builds both RBC's and WBC's...  You may be so tired because of the anemia...  Hang in there precious you will be bounding up those stairs soon.

You are all doing so well.  PC/Keith  rocker is correct.  SVR is a coming.
