Woooooooooooot! At last...progress!

Aug 08, 2009

Finally, I'm making headway.  With much thanks to my new PCP, Michelle Knapp (who has the patience of a saint) I started on some lasix and a short, ten day round of prednisone to stop my Fibromyalgia flare.  I went to see Ashley at Dr. Loggins and low and behold...POOF....11 pounds gone.  I think a lot of it was water weight on my poor swollen knees.  I haven't been able to move them for months and the pain has been excruciating.   I've been exercising nearly everyday now and hitting the pool 3 times a week.  My calories are in line (1000), protein is there (60-80) and the fluids (48-100).  Hopefully this will keep moving and before I know it I'll be having my surgery and hitting the road running!  Thank you to all of those who have been encouraging me along the way.  You can never have too many friends or kind words!
