May 8, 2008

Hello again, Just to let all of you know that I'm feeling great! I had been feeling weak and tired just about the whole time since my transplant but also, I had NO appetite and I really was eating next to nothing. One of the doctors put me on an appetite STIMULANT about a week and a half ago which I really didn't want to go on, but it has helped my appetite and that fuel (food) makes an amazing difference in the way I feel! : ) Things seem to be finally falling into place and I'm starting to feel as normal as I ever feel. (those of you who know me best know that I never was and never will be "normal" !)

PS. The doctor promised me that if I start porking out that I can go off the appetite med. So far I've gained about 3 or 4 pounds and I'm holding steady.

I go to the doctor and get my blood drawn tomorrow so I will try to give you an update then.

Karen
