UCLA patient
Hi Sam,
I also go to UCLA. I had ATG treatment in April of 2008, as of Feb 2009 I am officially in remission. Thanks to the great doctor Paquette!! I feel great, I am exercising 3 mornings a week, yoga 1 morning, and on the off 2 days, I do water arobics. I could not do this a year ago. I could barely walk down the street. I feel totaly different. I used to live in Azusa, and my husband is from La Puente. I now live in the high desert. But I go to see Dr Paquette every other month. I make a day out of it when I drive down there. Write back |

Counts
Hi,again,
My counts as of Febuary, are really good. The best since I was diagnosed four years ago.My platlets are 151,000, my hb 12.5 but the Doctor has still not taken me down on the cyclosporine which is 250 mg a day. He said on my next visit he will start to taper me down. But my kidneyfunction is good.Keep the faith, it will all turn around. Try to keep positive. I cannot sleep!!! |
counts
Hi,
I just try to get up every day, as it could be my last. You never know, when hat day will come. So I try to smile and be postive and happy to be alive. Do not get me wrong I do have days where I get down. But I try my hardest to be postive.The most important thing that I feel is I try not to be around negitive people that can bring me down. Smile, Smile, Smile Thanks Carol |
