Erin,

It is ok that you are scared & it is healthy that you are honest about it. Just hang in there, and keep the faith. Yes MG SUCKS!!! So do the treatments. But allow yourself to feel. I will be thinking of you & praying for you. When do you go in for the plasma exchange? Keep us posted!

Peace, Nancy Lee

I know it's silly, but I am still scared! Hate this darn disease! My neuro told me I won't get better until all of the infections are taken care of - so I will be receiving IV antibiotics, but am still scared!

The way that thing feels as it goes into my neck! It hurts like heck! And when they take it out - yeesh! Last time they put too much Heparin in my line, so there I was with an IV in my neck and hand and wanted so stick me - the IV in my hand wouldn't give any blood, and I just broke down!

It was awful!

I am so scared!

I try to find the positive in stuff, but I am finding it realy hard to find the positive here!!!!

ERin
