Default Update!

Hi everyone,

Just wanted to drop a quick note - everything went VERY well today with the doctors at Hopkins. I am VERY excited about HiCy/Revimmune.....and apparently I'm a great candidate for it! The doctors (and everyone really) were just fantastic! And I finally met a neurologist who has an actual personality!

It was a VERY long day (arriving there by 10:30, not done till 5). I actually got there late - well - I was way early - and then realized I left the CDs of my MRIs in the hotel! Eeeek! I totally panicked - I was supposed to be there by 9:30 for a 10am appointment. I was just driving in the car hysterically crying, rushing to get the CDs. But everyone was just fantastic. (And hey, I brought them some groovy See's Candies from CA. Bribery never hurts, right??) I cried a lot today in between appointments and stuff....very emotional. Though, I did not cry when they took 17 vials of blood from me!

I head home tomorrow - need to leave hotel by 5:30am....and I'm just beat right now. I'm not sure I ever adjusted my "clock" to east coast time.

I've pretty much made up my mind that I'm going to go forward with this.....I know I need to "think" some more....though, my plans are falling into place as of now... Excited and petrified....like when I jumped out of a plane two years ago? There's a lot to plan, as I plan on coming back to Hopkins within 3 weeks or so!
