After 5 loooooong years of dealing with this awful disease, my neuro thinks I'm in REMISSION!!!! I'm so happy! Granted, I still have to deal with all of the side effects of the cyclosporine - arthiritis, osteoporosis, brittle bones and the loss of 6 in. heightwise, but I feel so blessed! Oh Lord, the weight! I'm stuck @ 170 lbs, which for a 4'11" woman is HUGE, but with the lower meds, I'm HOPING to lose it, but if not, I'll be fine, so long as I feel like this!
It has been a battle. I've been very, very close to meeting my maker (MRSA was the worst), but I finally see light@ the end of the tunnel!  For a while I will still be getting IGG every month, but it will be tapered off and hopefully I will only be on IGG when I need it! The ONLY positive of having to deal with this is meeting the people here. Everyone has been so amazing, so kind, so hopeful. I don't know what I would have done without it, truly. I have been truly blessed to meet so many wonderful people. *admin edit* I still remember the first time I found this site! It was amazing! People who UNDERSTOOD what I was going through! People who could relate, people who were just as scared as I was; it was awesome! I still log on and read everyone's posts. I'm just quiet now. I hope this post finds all of you happy! I still pray for everyone and hope you have a great day/week/year. Big hugs! Erin
