The nurse just called back and told me not to worry. They like to catch these things when they first start and the numbers aren't too high. Although I'm in a mini flare because of the increased activity due to my move, I think I'll be able to handle getting off CellCept. At least I have Celebrex to fall back on.
I miss talking to you too, Barb. I go from dawn to dusk every day without stopping except for 10 or 15 minutes on the computer every day. So much to get done. But this too will end. Soon. You're the one I'm worried about. My problems are minimal so don't concern yourself with them. Just feel better. I do hope today is better for you than yesterday.
Hippi, I know you've dealt with too. I hadn't correlated the high liver enzymes with inflammation but it makes perfect sense. Have you been able to get your numbers down? We're having wonderful fall weather and it makes me feel so much better. How are you doing? Have sports kicked back in? The good thing for you is that you won't have to struggle as much with the hot summer sun. Write to me sometime. I miss our talks.
Take care you two.
